4-I guide
Tell them to wait, for the believers are waiting too.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "What are you waiting for with hope?"
Listen together as Ahmed Taleb recites ayat 110–123 of Hud, a short clip shared by Echoesofharamain.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Who is waiting?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "What do believers wait for?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Hud is surah 11. Find ayah 122. Believers wait with hope for Allah's promise. Waiting with patience and trust is part of faith.
Fact: In At-Tur 52:31, waiting is mentioned again.
Ages 5–8: Hopeful waiting. Talk about something you're waiting for and make du'a.
Ages 9–12: Hope. Write what believers hope for.

Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will wait patiently and make du'a."
