4-I guide
Ibrahim asked Allah not to put him to shame on the Day people are brought back.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "What would you not want to be embarrassed about on the Last Day?"
Play only a little. Let Idrees Abkar's recitation, from abukar Osman, set a calm mood.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What did Ibrahim ask on the Last Day?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why worry about that Day?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Ash-Shu'ara is surah 26. Find ayah 87. The key word la tukhzini means do not disgrace me. Ibrahim thought ahead to the Day of Resurrection. He wanted to stand there with honour. Preparing now protects us then.
Fact: Which ayah of Al Imran contains a dua not to be disgraced on the Day of Resurrection?
Ages 5–8: Honour badge. Draw a badge for a deed you would be proud of.
Ages 9–12: Prepare now. Write three deeds that bring honour on that Day.
Finish with: "I found it is ayah ___ of Al Imran."

Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will do one deed I'd be proud of on the Last Day."
Action: Do one deed you'd be proud of on the Last Day.
