Start with bismillah.
Ask: "Have you ever believed something that turned out to be false?"

Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Who is turned away from the truth?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "How can I protect myself from being misled?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Adh-Dhariyat is surah 51. Find ayah 9. The key word yu'faku means is turned away. Scholars explain that people who choose to turn from the truth end up further from it. Checking what we hear and asking questions keeps us on the right path.
Fact: What are three ways to check if a news story is true?
Ages 5–8: True or false? Play a game where someone says three facts and one is made up.
Ages 9–12: Source check. Find one fact online and check it in two other places.
Finish with: "I found that to check a story I can ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will check before I believe or share any surprising news."
Action: Check before you believe or share any surprising news.
