4-I guide
And from among those who followed his way was Ibrahim.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "Who do you look up to as a role model?"
Watch the Tiny Sparks Stories video Ibrahim and Nimrod: Fire of Faith.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Whose way did Ibrahim follow?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "What did Ibrahim learn from Nuh's way?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah As-Saffat is surah 37. Find ayah 83. The key word shi'ah here means party or people of the same way. Ibrahim lived long after Nuh but followed the same path: worshipping Allah alone and calling people to Him. All the prophets are like one family of faith. Ibrahim is often called the father of the prophets.
Fact: What special title does the Quran give Ibrahim in Surah An-Nisa ayah 125?
Ages 5–8: Faith family. Draw a family tree of faith with Nuh, Ibrahim and Muhammad on it.
Ages 9–12: Same path. Write three things Nuh and Ibrahim had in common.
Finish with: "I found that his title is ___."

Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will copy one good habit from a role model."
Action: Copy one good habit from a role model.
