Opening the ayah…
وَمَن يَتَوَلَّ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ وَٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ فَإِنَّ حِزْبَ ٱللَّهِ هُمُ ٱلْغَٰلِبُونَ
Wa man yatawalla -llaha warassūlahu wa-lladhīna 'āmanū fa'inna ḥiz'ba -llahi humu l-ghālibūna
As to those who turn (for friendship) to Allah, His Messenger, and the (fellowship of) believers,- it is the fellowship of Allah that must certainly triumph.
Translation: Abdullah Yusuf Ali

4-I guide
Whoever takes Allah, His Messenger and the believers as allies is with the party of Allah, and the party of Allah will be victorious.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "Which team would you want to be on?"
Ayat 51–57 come next in a NgajiBareng04 clip. Count on your fingers how often you hear the word Allah.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Who will be victorious?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "What makes Allah's party win?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-Ma'idah is surah 5. Find ayah 56. Being on Allah's side means following truth. In the end, truth wins, in this life or the next.
Fact: Al-Mujadilah 58:22 also mentions the party of Allah.
Ages 5–8: Team Allah. Talk about what it means to be on Allah's side.
Ages 9–12: Truth wins. Write why truth wins in the end.
Finish with: "The party of Allah will be ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will stand up for what is right."
Action: Stand up for what is right.
