4-I guide
The ruins lie on a road that people still travel.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "What do travellers see on old roads?"
Put on Mahmoud Khalil Al-Husary's Al-Hijr from Quran.surf and follow along for a little while.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Where are the ruins?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why does Allah leave ruins where people pass?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-Hijr is surah 15. Find ayah 76. The ruins are on a well-used road, so travellers see them and remember. History is all around us if we look.
Fact: Find a similar ayah in As-Saffat (37:137).
Ages 5–8: Road trip. Talk about interesting places you've passed on a journey.
Ages 9–12: Reminders on the road. Write what travellers can learn.
Finish with: "I found it in Surah ___, ayah ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will say the travel du'a on every journey."
Action: Say the travel du'a on every journey.
