Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What can false gods decide?"

Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why can only Allah judge with complete fairness?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah Ghafir is surah 40. Find ayah 20. The key word yaqdi means He judges or decides. A good judge must know all the facts and be completely fair. Only Allah hears every word and sees every action, so only He can judge with full truth. Idols cannot hear, see or decide anything.

Fact: Which ayah in Surah Al-Hajj says idols could not create even a fly?

Ages 5–8: Hear and see. Close your eyes and cover your ears, then talk about how Allah never misses anything.

Ages 9–12: Fair judge. Write what a fair judge needs, and how Allah has all of it.

Finish with: "I found that the ayah is Al-Hajj ___."

Talk together:

• Why can only Allah judge with full truth?
• Which name of Allah does this remind you of?
• How can we be fair when we judge others?
• Why can't idols help anyone?
• What would you like to ask about this ayah?

Make a small plan: "This week, I will listen to both sides before deciding who is right."

• Listen to both sides.
• Try hear and see.
• Share fair judge.
• Next time: the next ayah (40:21) invites us to travel and learn from the past. Explore it together!

Action: Listen to both sides before deciding who is right.
