4-I guide
Then Allah drowned the others.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "What happened to Pharaoh's power in the end?"
Just a few minutes, please. Play Idrees Abkar's recitation from The Glorious Quran and follow along.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What happened to the pursuers?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why couldn't Pharaoh save himself?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Ash-Shu'ara is surah 26. Find ayah 66. The key word aghraqna means We drowned. The waters closed over Pharaoh and his army. One calm line is enough: the tyrant's power ended in a moment. The believers were safe.
Fact: Which ayah of Yunus says Pharaoh's body would be a sign for those after him?
Ages 5–8: Lesson drawing. Draw the believers safe and the sea calm again.
Ages 9–12: End of power. Write what Pharaoh's end teaches about pride.
Finish with: "I found it is ayah ___ of Yunus."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will stay humble when I win at something."
Action: Stay humble when you win at something.
