Start with bismillah.

Ask: "What's wrong with saying yes but meaning no?"

Listen together to a recitation of ayah 81 (Ummah Muslim). Then guess why this guide is called 'Saying Yes, Planning No'.

Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What does Allah record?"

Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why does honesty matter even at night?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah An-Nisa' is surah 4. Find ayah 81. Some hypocrites agreed outwardly but plotted secretly. Allah sees all. Believers keep their words and plans the same.

Fact: Al-Wakil means the One to rely on fully.

Ages 5–8: Mean it. Only say yes when you mean it.

Ages 9–12: Integrity. Write what it means for words and actions to match.

Finish with: "Allah is Al-___, enough to rely on."

Talk together:

• What did they do?
• Which name of Allah does this remind you of?
• What does Allah record?
• How do you keep words and actions the same?

Make a small plan: "This week, I will only say yes when I mean it."

• Mean your words.
• Allah records.
• Trust Allah.
• Next time: the next ayah (4:82) invites reflection on the Qur'an. Explore it together!

Action: Only say yes when you mean it.
