Juz 10 · Page 187

وَإِنْ أَحَدٌۭ مِّنَ ٱلْمُشْرِكِينَ ٱسْتَجَارَكَ فَأَجِرْهُ حَتَّىٰ يَسْمَعَ كَلَٰمَ ٱللَّهِ ثُمَّ أَبْلِغْهُ مَأْمَنَهُۥ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمْ قَوْمٌۭ لَّا يَعْلَمُونَ

How to read it

Wa 'in' 'aḥadun mmina l-mush'rikīna (i)s'tajāraka fa'ajir'hu ḥattā yas'maʻa kalāma -llahi thumma 'ab'ligh'hu ma''manahu . dhālika bi'annahum' qaw'mun llā yaʻ'lamūna

If one amongst the Pagans ask thee for asylum, grant it to him, so that he may hear the word of Allah; and then escort him to where he can be secure. That is because they are men without knowledge.

Translation: Abdullah Yusuf Ali

Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Where should the person be taken?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why protect someone from the other side?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah At-Tawbah is surah 9. Find ayah 6. Even during conflict, anyone who asked for safety had to be protected, allowed to hear the Qur'an and then escorted safely home. Islam is about mercy and inviting with kindness, not forcing.
Fact: What amanah, safety and trust, means.
Ages 5–8: Safe place. Make a cosy 'safe corner' and talk about helping people feel safe.
Ages 9–12: Protection. Write how this ayah shows mercy even to opponents.
Finish with: "The person was to hear the words of ___."
