Opening the ayah…
وَمَن لَّمْ يُؤْمِنۢ بِٱللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِۦ فَإِنَّآ أَعْتَدْنَا لِلْكَٰفِرِينَ سَعِيرًۭا
Wa man llam' yu''min[m] bi-llahi warassūlihī fa'innā 'aʻ'tad'nā lil'kāfirīna saʻīran
And if any believe not in Allah and His Messenger, We have prepared, for those who reject Allah, a Blazing Fire!
Translation: Abdullah Yusuf Ali

4-I guide
A blazing fire is ready for anyone who refuses to have faith in Allah and His Messenger.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "What does a Muslim believe?"
Watch the Zill Noorain Kids video What is Islam.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What two beliefs does this ayah mention?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why is believing in Allah and His Messenger so important?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-Fath is surah 48. Find ayah 13. The key words man lam yu'min mean whoever does not believe. This ayah is a short, serious warning. Believing in Allah and His Messenger is the foundation of everything. Allah warns clearly so that people choose faith while they can.
Fact: What are the six pillars of iman (faith)?
Ages 5–8: Faith house. Draw a house with pillars and write one belief on each.
Ages 9–12: Pillar cards. Make a card for each pillar of iman with its meaning.
Finish with: "I found that the six pillars of iman are ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will learn the six pillars of iman by heart."
Action: Learn the six pillars of iman by heart.
