Opening the ayah…
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ سَبَقَتْ لَهُم مِّنَّا ٱلْحُسْنَىٰٓ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ عَنْهَا مُبْعَدُونَ
'Inna -lladhīna sabaqat' lahum mminnā l-ḥus'nā 'ūlā'ika ʻan'hā mub'ʻadūna
Those for whom the good (record) from Us has gone before, will be removed far therefrom.
Translation: Abdullah Yusuf Ali

4-I guide
Those for whom Allah already decided good will be kept far away from the Fire.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "What makes you feel completely safe?"
Listen together to Muhammad Siddiq Al-Minshawi reciting ayat 101–107, shared by Qur'anic Benefactions.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Who will be kept far away?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "How can I be among those promised good?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-Anbiya is surah 21. Find ayah 101. Al-husna means the finest reward. Those who believed and did good will be kept far from the Fire.
Fact: Find the ayah promising al-husna to those who do good (Yunus 10:26).
Ages 5–8: Safe place. Draw a safe, happy place.
Ages 9–12: Promised good. Write what deeds lead to this promise.
Finish with: "I found it in Surah ___, ayah ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will do a good deed every day."
Action: Do a good deed every day.
