4-I guide
Nuh turned to his Lord and asked for help because his people called him a liar.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "Who do you go to when things are too hard?"
Sit quietly and hear Ahmad Khedr, posted by Servant of Allah. Only the start is needed.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Who did Nuh ask for help?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why did Nuh ask Allah, not people?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-Mu'minun is surah 23. Find ayah 26. After many years, Nuh turned to Allah in du'a. Asking Allah for help is the strongest thing we can do when we have tried our best.
Fact: Find another du'a of Nuh in Surah Al-Qamar, ayah 10.
Ages 5–8: Du'a jar. Write du'as on slips and put them in a jar.
Ages 9–12: Trying and asking. Write about a time you tried hard and then asked Allah for help.
Finish with: "I found it in Surah ___, ayah ___."

Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will make du'a for ___ (what)."
Action: Make your du'a.
