4-I guide
And My curse will remain on you until the Day of Recompense.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "Why do you think Shaytan wants people to make mistakes?"
Watch the Tuka Tumi video How Iblis Tricked Prophet Adam.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Until when will Iblis be far from Allah's mercy?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why is Shaytan our enemy?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Sad is surah 38. Find ayah 78. The key word la'nah means being kept far from Allah's mercy. Because of his pride, Iblis was kept away from mercy until the Day of Judgement. Instead of repenting, he became jealous of humans and wants to trick them, just as he tricked Adam and Hawwa. Knowing our enemy helps us stay alert.
Fact: Which ayah in Surah Al-A'raf tells how Shaytan whispered to Adam and Hawwa?
Ages 5–8: Trick spotter. Act out a sneaky whisper saying "skip salah" and practise saying "no".
Ages 9–12: Enemy tactics. Write three tricks Shaytan uses and how to beat each one.
Finish with: "I found that the ayah is Al-A'raf ___."

Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will say no straight away to one bad whisper."
Action: Say no straight away to one bad whisper.
