4-I guide
No one can be led astray by them except the one who chooses the road to the Fire.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "Can someone be led astray if their heart is set on Allah?"

Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Who can be misled?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "How do I keep my heart set on Allah?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah As-Saffat is surah 37. Find ayah 163. The key word sali means one who will burn. Only those who have already chosen the wrong path can be misled. This is a short warning, but its message is hopeful: when we rely on Allah, Al-Wakil, the Trustee, He guards our hearts.
Fact: What does the name Al-Wakil mean?
Ages 5–8: Heart lock. Draw a heart with a lock and a key labelled "trust in Allah".
Ages 9–12: Guard your heart. Write three daily habits that keep a heart set on Allah.
Finish with: "I found that Al-Wakil means ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will hand my worries to Allah in du'a each night."
Action: Hand your worries to Allah in du'a each night.
