Start with bismillah.

Ask: "What would make you trust someone with an important message?"

Stories of the Prophets tells the story of Prophet Hud.

Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "How did Hud describe himself?"

Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why did Hud's people know he was honest?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah Ash-Shu'ara is surah 26. Find ayah 125. The key word amin means trustworthy. Hud had lived honestly among 'Ad. His character backed up his message. Our good character makes our words believable.

Fact: Which ayah of Al-Fajr mentions Iram, the city of tall pillars?

Ages 5–8: Honest words. Practise telling the full truth about a small thing.

Ages 9–12: Character first. Write why character makes words believable.

Finish with: "I found it is ayah ___ of Al-Fajr."

Talk together:

• Why did character matter?
• Which name of Allah does this remind you of?
• How do you build trust?
• Who do you trust most?
• What would you like to ask about this ayah?

Make a small plan: "This week, I will be honest even in small things."

• Be honest in small things.
• Practise honest words.
• Share character first.
• Next time: the next ayah (26:126) is Hud's call to be mindful and obey. Explore it together!

Action: Be honest even in small things.
