4-I guide
On that Day, the journey is towards your Lord.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "Where does a river end up after its long journey?"
Watch the Inspire Education video The Journey of a River.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Where is the journey to?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "What will I take on my journey?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-Qiyamah is surah 75. Find ayah 30. The key word al-masaq means the driving, the journey. Every river, however winding, ends at the sea. Every person's journey ends with meeting Allah.
Fact: What is a river delta, and how does it form?
Ages 5–8: River model. Pour water slowly down a sand tray. Watch it find a path to the bottom.
Ages 9–12: River journey. Pick a famous river and trace it from source to sea on a map.
Finish with: "I found that a delta forms when ___."

Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will add one good deed to my journey each day."
Action: Add one good deed to your journey each day.
