4-I guide
And the sorcerers fell down in prostration.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "What would make tricksters suddenly bow to Allah?"
Settle down and play the start of Muhammad Al-Luhaidan's Al-A'raf (Recite Along Quran).
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What did the sorcerers do?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why did they believe so quickly?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-A'raf is surah 7. Find ayah 120. The sorcerers knew tricks better than anyone. They saw that Musa's sign was no trick but truth from Allah, so they fell into sujud immediately.
Fact: How many sujud are in each rak'ah of prayer? Two.
Ages 5–8: Sujud. Pray two rak'ahs and feel close to Allah in sujud.
Ages 9–12: Recognising truth. Write why experts recognised the truth first.
Finish with: "Each rak'ah has ___ sujud."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will make long sujud in one prayer."
Action: Make long sujud in one prayer.
