Opening the ayah…
فَمَنِ ٱفْتَرَىٰ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ ٱلْكَذِبَ مِنۢ بَعْدِ ذَٰلِكَ فَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلظَّٰلِمُونَ
Famani (i)f'tarā ʻalā-llahi l-kadhiba min[m] baʻ'di dhālika fa'ūlā'ika humu ẓẓālimūna
If any, after this, invent a lie and attribute it to Allah, they are indeed unjust wrong-doers.
Translation: Abdullah Yusuf Ali

4-I guide
Whoever makes up lies about Allah after this, they are the wrongdoers.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "Why is saying 'Allah said' when He didn't so serious?"
Play the short Ali 'Imran clip of ayat 92–100 from USRAH ILMU STUDIO.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Who are the wrongdoers?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why must we be careful about religious claims?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Ali 'Imran is surah 3. Find ayah 94. Making up rules and saying they're from Allah is a big wrong. We only say 'Allah says' when we know it's in the Qur'an or Sunnah.
Fact: Scholars only say 'Allah says' about what is in the Qur'an.
Ages 5–8: Careful words. Practise saying 'I think' when unsure.
Ages 9–12: Careful claims. Write why we're careful with religious claims.
Finish with: "Don't invent ___ about Allah."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will say 'I'm not sure' when I don't know."
Action: Say 'you'm not sure' when you don't know.
