4-I guide
On that Day, people who rejected the truth will be in real trouble.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "What happens when someone ignores good advice from people who care about them?"
Watch the WOKALand English video Always Listen To Parents.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Who will have a hard time on that Day?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "What stops a heart from hearing good advice?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah At-Tur is surah 52. Find ayah 11. The key word al-mukadhdhibin means those who deny, who call the truth a lie. Allah sent messengers with clear signs, and many people chose not to listen. Listening with an open heart is the first step to guidance.
Fact: What are three signs that someone is really listening?
Ages 5–8: Listening game. One person gives three steps to follow. Can you do them all in order?
Ages 9–12: Advice jar. Collect good advice from family members and put it in a jar.
Finish with: "I found that good listeners ___."

Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will listen to advice from my parents without arguing back."
Action: Listen to advice from your parents without arguing back.
