4-I guide
Iblis said he could not mislead Allah's sincere servants.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "Who is safe from Iblis's tricks?"
Put on Saad Al-Ghamdi's Al-Hijr from islamicfromjamal and follow along for a little while.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Who can Iblis not mislead?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "What does it mean to be sincere?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-Hijr is surah 15. Find ayah 40. Mukhlas means sincere and devoted to Allah. Those who do things purely for Allah are protected. Sincerity is a shield.
Fact: Find the ayah 'my prayer and my sacrifice are for Allah' (Al-An'am 6:162).
Ages 5–8: Pure intention. Do a good deed and say 'for Allah' quietly.
Ages 9–12: Sincerity. Write what sincere worship looks like.
Finish with: "I found it in Surah ___, ayah ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will do one good deed only for Allah."
Action: Do one good deed only for Allah.
