Opening the ayah…
فَأَمَّا مَن تَابَ وَءَامَنَ وَعَمِلَ صَٰلِحًۭا فَعَسَىٰٓ أَن يَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلْمُفْلِحِينَ
Fa'ammā man tāba wa'āmana waʻamila ṣāliḥan faʻassā 'an yakūna mina l-muf'liḥīna
But any that (in this life) had repented, believed, and worked righteousness, will have hopes to be among those who achieve salvation.
Translation: Abdullah Yusuf Ali

4-I guide
Anyone who turns back to Allah, believes and does good deeds can hope to be among those who succeed.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "Is it ever too late to say sorry to Allah?"
Quran Hub shares Abdul Rahman Mossad's reading; hear its opening.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Which three things lead to success?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "How wide is Allah's door of forgiveness?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-Qasas is surah 28. Find ayah 67. The key words taba wa amana wa 'amila salihan mean repented, believed and did good. After the hard scenes of that Day, Allah opens a door of hope. Anyone can turn back to Him. Repentance, faith and good deeds lead to success.
Fact: Which surah's ayah 82 promises forgiveness to whoever repents, believes and does good?
Ages 5–8: Fresh start. Draw an open door with a sign: always open for those who return.
Ages 9–12: Three steps. Write what repenting, believing and doing good look like in daily life.
Finish with: "I found it in Surah ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will say astaghfirullah each morning and start fresh."
Action: Say astaghfirullah each morning and start fresh.
