4-I guide
When We rescued him and all his household together,
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "What do you think it felt like to be rescued at the last moment?"
Watch the Short Islamic Stories for Kids video The Story of Prophet Lut.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Who did Allah save?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "How did Lut and his family escape?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah As-Saffat is surah 37. Find ayah 134. The key word ajma'in means all together. Allah told Lut to leave the town at night with his family and not look back. They obeyed and were saved. Again, the pattern repeats: those who listen to Allah are rescued.
Fact: At what time of day did Lut and his family leave the town?
Ages 5–8: Follow instructions. Play a game following clear instructions to reach a "safe" spot.
Ages 9–12: Rescue pattern. Compare the rescues of Nuh, Musa and Lut in a short table.
Finish with: "I found that they left at ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will follow my parents' safety instructions straight away."
Action: Follow your parents' safety instructions straight away.
