Opening the ayah…
فَأَمَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ فَيُدْخِلُهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ فِى رَحْمَتِهِۦ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱلْفَوْزُ ٱلْمُبِينُ
Fa'ammā -lladhīna 'āmanū waʻamilū ṣṣāliḥāti fayud'khiluhum' rabbuhum' fī raḥ'matihī . dhālika huwa l-faw'zu l-mubīnu
Then, as to those who believed and did righteous deeds, their Lord will admit them to His Mercy that will be the achievement for all to see.

4-I guide
Believers who did good deeds will be brought by their Lord into His mercy, and that is the clear success.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "What does real success look like?"
Watch the Deen Kids video Allah's Mercy.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Where will the believers be admitted?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "How can I reach Allah's mercy?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-Jathiyah is surah 45. Find ayah 30. The key words al-fawz al-mubin mean the clear success. People call winning trophies or getting rich success. The Quran says the clear success is entering Allah's mercy. Faith and good deeds are the path, and Allah's mercy is bigger than our efforts.
Fact: How many times does "ar-Rahman" appear in the bismillah?
Ages 5–8: Mercy hearts. Cut out paper hearts and write an act of mercy on each.
Ages 9–12: Success redefined. Write what success means to you now and after reading this ayah.
Finish with: "I found that the bismillah mentions mercy ___ times."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will show mercy to a person or an animal every day."
Action: Show mercy to a person or an animal every day.
