Opening the ayah…
يُصْهَرُ بِهِۦ مَا فِى بُطُونِهِمْ وَٱلْجُلُودُ
Yuṣ'haru bihī mā fī buṭūnihim' wal-julūdu
With it will be scalded what is within their bodies, as well as (their) skins.
Translation: Abdullah Yusuf Ali

4-I guide
The punishment of the Fire reaches them inside and out.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "Why do we stay away from very hot things?"
Sit quietly and hear Ahmed Khedr, posted by Tadabbur FHD. Only the start is needed.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "How serious is this warning?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "How can I stay far from the Fire?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-Hajj is surah 22. Find ayah 20. One calm line: the Fire's punishment is complete. Allah warns us so we keep away from what leads there. His mercy is wider than His anger.
Fact: Find the du'a asking protection from the Fire (Al-Baqarah 2:201).
Ages 5–8: Cool shade. Draw a shady tree and write good deeds as leaves.
Ages 9–12: Shield deeds. List deeds that protect us.
Finish with: "I found it in Surah ___, ayah ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will say the du'a of 2:201 every day."
Action: Say the du'a of 2:201 every day.
