4-I guide
No indeed, when the soul reaches up to the collarbones at the end of life.
Start with bismillah.
Collect a few fallen leaves. Ask: "Why do trees let go of their leaves?"
Watch the Smartie the Alpaca video Why Do Leaves Fall Off Trees?
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What moment is this ayah about?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "What can I do so I'm ready?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-Qiyamah is surah 75. Find ayah 26. The key word at-taraqi means the collarbones. This ayah gently describes the end of a person's life. Every leaf falls one day, and every life has its time. What matters is how we lived.
Fact: What does a tree do to get ready to drop its leaves?
Ages 5–8: Leaf collage. Make a picture from fallen leaves. Say alhamdulillah for each season.
Ages 9–12: Life goals. Write three good things you hope to do in your life.
Finish with: "I found that trees drop their leaves because ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will make dua for my family every night."
Action: Make dua for your family every night.
