Opening the ayah…
فَإِن تَوَلَّوْا۟ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلِيمٌۢ بِٱلْمُفْسِدِينَ
Fa'in tawallaw' fa'inna -llaha ʻalīmun[m] bil-muf'sidīna
But if they turn back, Allah hath full knowledge of those who do mischief.
Translation: Abdullah Yusuf Ali

4-I guide
If they turn away, Allah fully knows those who spread corruption.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "Does Allah know who causes trouble?"
Play the short Ali 'Imran clip of ayat 62–70 from A.A.H. (Abu Al Humaira).
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Whom does Allah know?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why does the Prophet not need to worry?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Ali 'Imran is surah 3. Find ayah 63. The Prophet shared the truth. If people turned away, Allah knows them; the Prophet didn't need to force anyone. We do our part and leave the rest to Allah.
Fact: Fasad means spreading harm and trouble in the land.
Ages 5–8: Fix it. Fix something broken or messy at home.
Ages 9–12: Our part. Write what is our part and what is Allah's.
Finish with: "Allah knows those who spread ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will tidy something that someone else left messy."
Action: Tidy something that someone else left messy.
