Opening the ayah…
فَأَمَّا ٱلَّذِينَ شَقُوا۟ فَفِى ٱلنَّارِ لَهُمْ فِيهَا زَفِيرٌۭ وَشَهِيقٌ
Fa'ammā -lladhīna shaqū fafī nnāri lahum' fīhā zafīrun washahīqun
Those who are wretched shall be in the Fire: There will be for them therein (nothing but) the heaving of sighs and sobs:
Translation: Abdullah Yusuf Ali

4-I guide
The miserable will be in the Fire, sighing and groaning there.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "Why does Allah describe the Fire to us?"
Listen together as Mishary Alafasy recites ayat 96–109 of Hud, a short clip shared by oldputra.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Where are the miserable?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "How can I stay far from it?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Hud is surah 11. Find ayah 106. This ayah gives one short, serious line about the Fire. Allah tells us so we stay away. We focus on believing, praying and being kind, and on Allah's mercy.
Fact: Find a du'a asking protection from the Fire in Al-Furqan 25:65.
Ages 5–8: Safety du'a. Learn a short du'a for protection from the Fire.
Ages 9–12: Stay far. Write three deeds that keep us far from the Fire.
Finish with: "Al-Furqan 25:65 says ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will say a protection du'a after prayer."
Action: Say a protection du'a after prayer.
