Start with bismillah.

Ask: "Why should our actions match our words?"

Only the start is needed. Play Sahl Yassin's recitation from Kitabullah and follow along.

Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What do they do?"

Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why is it bad to say and not do?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah Ash-Shu'ara is surah 26. Find ayah 226. The key words yaquluna ma la yaf'alun mean they say what they do not do. Big words with no action are empty. Believers try to match their words with deeds.

Fact: Which ayat of As-Saff ask why believers say what they do not do?

Ages 5–8: Say and do. Promise one small thing and do it today.

Ages 9–12: Words and deeds. Write why actions must match words.

Finish with: "I found they are ayat ___ of As-Saff."

Talk together:

• Why say and not do?
• Which name of Allah does this remind you of?
• How do we match words and deeds?
• What will you do today?
• What would you like to ask about this ayah?

Make a small plan: "This week, I will do everything I say I will do."

• Do what you say.
• Try say and do.
• Share words and deeds.
• Next time: the next ayah (26:227) is the exception for believing, good poets and the final warning. Explore it together!

Action: Do everything you say you will do.
