4-I guide
Allah raised Idris to a high and honoured place.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "How does Allah raise people up?"
Settle down and play the start of Haitham Al-Dukhain's Maryam (مؤسسة قطر).
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Where did Allah raise Idris?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "What makes someone high in Allah's sight?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Maryam is surah 19. Find ayah 57. Allah raised Idris to a lofty rank. With Allah, people rise through faith, truthfulness and good deeds, not money or fame.
Fact: Find the ayah that says Allah raises those who believe and have knowledge (Al-Mujadilah 58:11).
Ages 5–8: Climbing up. Draw steps labelled with deeds that raise you.
Ages 9–12: High rank. Write what raises a person with Allah.
Finish with: "I found it in Surah ___, ayah ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will seek knowledge and act on it."
Action: Seek knowledge and act on it.
