4-I guide
This is simply a lesson for all peoples of the world.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "Can one book help people in every country?"
Watch the Learn Land Kids video Quran Quran: Allah's Book for Everyone.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Who can benefit from the Quran?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "How is the Quran a reminder for people who speak other languages?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Sad is surah 38. Find ayah 87. The key word al-'alamin means all the worlds, all peoples. The Quran is not just for one family, tribe or country. It is a reminder for everyone, in every place and time. Today people all over the world read it and learn from translations of its meaning.
Fact: Which country today has the largest number of Muslims?
Ages 5–8: World map. Point to five countries on a map and remember Muslims there reading the same Quran.
Ages 9–12: Many languages. Find how to say "thank you" in four languages spoken by Muslims.
Finish with: "I found that the country is ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will learn about Muslims in another country."
Action: Learn about Muslims in another country.
