4-I guide
And it is we who constantly glorify Him.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "Which words of praise do you say most often?"
Watch the Ibn Abid video Meaning of SubhanAllah, Alhamdulillah and Allahu Akbar.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What do the angels say they do?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Do the angels ever stop glorifying Allah?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah As-Saffat is surah 37. Find ayah 166. The key word al-musabbihun means those who glorify. Earlier, Yunus was saved because he was among those who glorify. Here the angels describe themselves the same way. Glorifying Allah connects us with the angels and with the prophets.
Fact: In which earlier ayah of this surah does the word for those who glorify appear about Yunus?
Ages 5–8: Praise moments. Choose three daily moments to glorify Allah, like waking up.
Ages 9–12: Word link. Write how the same word links Yunus and the angels in this surah.
Finish with: "I found that it is ayah ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will glorify Allah at three set moments every day."
Action: Glorify Allah at three set moments every day.
