Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What does Allah call the Prophet in this ayah?"

Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why is 'servant of Allah' such an honour?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah An-Najm is surah 53. Find ayah 10. The key word 'abdihi means His servant. A letter travels through many hands to reach the right address. Allah's message reached exactly the right person: the Prophet, whom Allah lovingly calls His servant. Being a servant of Allah is the highest honour.

Fact: How many letters does a big postal service sort in a day?

Ages 5–8: Address it. Write a card and address it carefully so it would reach the right person.

Ages 9–12: Servant of Allah. Write what it means to be a servant of Allah in your daily life.

Finish with: "I found that a postal service sorts about ___ letters a day."

Talk together:

• Why is "servant of Allah" a beautiful title?
• Which name of Allah does this remind you of?
• How can we serve Allah each day?
• How can we serve others for Allah's sake?
• What would you like to ask about this ayah?

Make a small plan: "This week, I will do one act of service each day for Allah's sake."

• Serve for Allah's sake daily.
• Address a card.
• Share servant of Allah.
• Next time: the next ayah (53:11) says his heart did not deny what he saw. Explore it together!

Action: Do one act of service each day for Allah's sake.
