Opening the ayah…
فَٱلْيَوْمَ لَا تُظْلَمُ نَفْسٌۭ شَيْـًۭٔا وَلَا تُجْزَوْنَ إِلَّا مَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ
Fal-yaw'ma lā tuẓ'lamu naf'sun shay''an walā tuj'zaw'na 'illā mā kuntum' taʻ'malūna
Then, on that Day, not a soul will be wronged in the least, and ye shall but be repaid the meeds of your past Deeds.
Translation: Abdullah Yusuf Ali

4-I guide
On that Day no one is treated unfairly, and everyone is repaid for what they did.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "How does it feel when something is unfair?"
Watch the ZamZamAcademy video al-Adl, the Utterly Just. Play the first few minutes.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "How much wrong will anyone suffer?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "How can Allah be fair to everyone?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Ya-Sin is surah 36. Find ayah 54. The key word la tuzlamu means you will not be wronged. Allah's justice is complete: no good deed is lost and nobody pays for someone else's mistake. In this world things can seem unfair, but on that Day everything will be set right.
Fact: Which name of Allah means the Utterly Just?
Ages 5–8: Fair share. Share a snack equally among the family and talk about fairness.
Ages 9–12: Fairness rules. Write five fairness rules for a family game.
Finish with: "I found that the Utterly Just is ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will be fair when sharing and taking turns."
Action: Be fair when sharing and taking turns.
