Opening the ayah…
وَإِن يُرِيدُوٓا۟ أَن يَخْدَعُوكَ فَإِنَّ حَسْبَكَ ٱللَّهُ ۚ هُوَ ٱلَّذِىٓ أَيَّدَكَ بِنَصْرِهِۦ وَبِٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
Wa 'in yurīdū 'an yakh'daʻūka fa'inna ḥas'baka -llahu . huwa -lladhī 'ayyadaka binaṣ'rihī wabil-mu''minīna
Should they intend to deceive thee,- verily Allah sufficeth thee: He it is That hath strengthened thee with His aid and with (the company of) the Believers;

4-I guide
If they mean to trick you, Allah is enough for you; it was He who made you strong through His help and through the believers.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "What if someone tries to trick you?"
Play the short clip from Daily listen Quran of Mishary Alafasy reciting ayat 62–69 of Al-Anfal.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Who supported the Prophet?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why don't we need to fear being tricked when we trust Allah?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-Anfal is surah 8. Find ayah 62. Some worried that peace offers might be tricks. Allah said: make peace anyway; I am enough for you. He supports believers with His help and with each other.
Fact: The phrase 'hasbunallah': Allah is enough for us.
Ages 5–8: Hasbunallah. Say it when you're worried.
Ages 9–12: Enough. Write how Allah being enough helps you feel safe.
Finish with: "Allah made him strong through His help and through the ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will say hasbunallah when worried."
Action: Say hasbunallah when worried.
