Opening the ayah…
وَمَن يَفْعَلْ ذَٰلِكَ عُدْوَٰنًۭا وَظُلْمًۭا فَسَوْفَ نُصْلِيهِ نَارًۭا ۚ وَكَانَ ذَٰلِكَ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ يَسِيرًا
Wa man yaf'ʻal' dhālika ʻud'wānan waẓul'man fassaw'fa nuṣ'līhi nāran . wakāna dhālika ʻalā-llahi yassīran
If any do that in rancour and injustice,- soon shall We cast them into the Fire: And easy it is for Allah.
Translation: Abdullah Yusuf Ali

4-I guide
Whoever cheats others of their wealth or harms a life out of aggression and injustice is warned of the Fire, and that is easy for Allah.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "Why is cheating and harming so serious?"
Our listening today is a recitation of ayat 21–30, posted by Leni Mard. Keep 'Aggression and Wrong' in mind while you listen.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What two words describe the wrong?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why mention aggression and injustice?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah An-Nisa' is surah 4. Find ayah 30. This ayah mentions, in one calm line, the result of cheating and harm done on purpose. Allah sees all.
Fact: Al-Mutaffifin 83:1 warns cheaters.
Ages 5–8: Fair play. Play a game honestly.
Ages 9–12: Intent matters. Write why doing wrong on purpose is worse.
Finish with: "Allah sees ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will play every game honestly."
Action: Play every game honestly.
