Start with bismillah.
Ask: "Why does trust matter in business?"
Dua Kids tells the story of Prophet Shu'ayb.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "How did Shu'ayb describe himself?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why would traders need an honest messenger?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Ash-Shu'ara is surah 26. Find ayah 178. The key word amin means trustworthy. Shu'ayb spoke to traders, who cared about deals. An honest messenger to a cheating people was a strong contrast. Honesty is the heart of good trade.
Fact: Which ayah of Al-A'raf has Shu'ayb say he delivered his Lord's messages and gave sincere advice?
Ages 5–8: Honest scales. Draw a market stall with a fair scale.

Make a small plan: "This week, I will be honest in every swap or trade."
Action: Be honest in every swap or trade.
