Opening the ayah…
فَسَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ مَن يَأْتِيهِ عَذَابٌۭ يُخْزِيهِ وَيَحِلُّ عَلَيْهِ عَذَابٌۭ مُّقِيمٌ
Fassaw'fa taʻ'lamūna man ya''tīhi ʻadhābun yukh'zīhi wayaḥillu ʻalay'hi ʻadhābun mmuqīmun
"But soon will ye know who it is on whom will descend a penalty that will cover them with shame,- on whom will be unloosed a penalty lasting:"
Translation: Abdullah Yusuf Ali

4-I guide
Nuh told them they would soon find out who would receive a punishment that disgraces, and a lasting punishment.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "How do we know the truth will come out in the end?"
Listen together as Nasser Al-Qatami recites ayat 36–44 of Hud, a short clip shared by The Verbatim Word of Allah.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What did Nuh say they would soon know?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why was Nuh so sure?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Hud is surah 11. Find ayah 39. Nuh trusted Allah's promise completely. He gave one calm warning: soon the truth would be clear. We can trust Allah's promises too.
Fact: Ar-Rum 30:6 says Allah never breaks His promise. Read it.
Ages 5–8: Trust the promise. Talk about promises Allah has made.
Ages 9–12: Certain hope. Write why trusting Allah's promise gives peace.
Finish with: "Ar-Rum 30:6 says ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will remember one promise of Allah each day."
Action: Remember one promise of Allah each day.
