Opening the ayah…
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ ٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ حَقَّ تُقَاتِهِۦ وَلَا تَمُوتُنَّ إِلَّا وَأَنتُم مُّسْلِمُونَ
Yā'ayyuhā -lladhīna 'āmanū (i)ttaqū -llaha ḥaqqa tuqātihī walā tamūtunna 'illā wa'antum mmus'limūna
O ye who believe! Fear Allah as He should be feared, and die not except in a state of Islam.
Translation: Abdullah Yusuf Ali

4-I guide
Believers, be mindful of Allah as He truly deserves, and make sure you are in submission to Him when your life ends.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "How do you make sure you finish a race well?"
Listen together as Mishary Alafasy recites ayat 101–108 of Ali 'Imran, a short clip shared by MZG.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "How should we be mindful of Allah?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "How can we make sure we end well?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Ali 'Imran is surah 3. Find ayah 102. We don't know when life ends, so we try to stay in submission to Allah every day. Good habits now help us finish well.
Fact: The Prophet said deeds are judged by how they end (Bukhari).
Ages 5–8: Finish well. Finish a task carefully today.
Ages 9–12: Every day. Write a habit that keeps you close to Allah daily.
Finish with: "Be mindful of Allah as He ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will end each day with a short du'a."
Action: End each day with a short du'a.
