4-I guide
The devils are kept far away from even hearing it.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "How was the Quran protected when it came down?"
Quran Is My Paradise recites ayat 213 to 220 in English.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What are devils kept from?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "How was the Quran guarded?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Ash-Shu'ara is surah 26. Find ayah 212. The key word la-ma'zulun means removed, kept away. The devils could not even listen in on revelation. The Quran was protected from the moment it was sent down until today.
Fact: Which ayat of Al-Jinn say the jinn found the sky filled with guards?
Ages 5–8: Protected treasure. Draw a treasure guarded by a strong wall.
Ages 9–12: Protected message. Write how the Quran has been protected.
Finish with: "I found they are ayat ___ of Al-Jinn."

Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will keep my mushaf in a clean, high place."
Action: Keep your mushaf in a clean, high place.
