Surah Al-Mulk (67) is a favourite for families because of its virtue. The Prophet ﷺ said that a surah of thirty verses interceded for a man until he was forgiven, and that it is “Tabarak-alladhi biyadihil-mulk” (Jami’ at-Tirmidhi 2891).
Before starting
Al-Mulk’s verses are longer than most of Juz Amma, so it suits children who already read well and have memorised several short surahs.
A four-week plan (2 verses a day, 5 days a week)
| Week | New verses | Every day |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1–10 | Recite from verse 1 up to today’s verses |
| 2 | 11–20 | Verses 11 up to today, plus 1–10 once |
| 3 | 21–30 | Verses 21 up to today, plus 1–20 once |
| 4 | None | Whole surah once a day; fix weak verses |
Natural sections to remember
- 1–5: Allah’s power and the perfect sky.
- 6–11: the people of the Fire and their regret.
- 12–15: those who fear Allah, and the earth made easy for us.
- 16–22: Allah’s control over everything, the birds in the sky.
- 23–30: Allah’s gifts of hearing, sight and water.
Telling your child the theme of each section helps them keep the verses in order.
Make it a night habit
Once memorised, recite it together at bedtime. It takes about 5 minutes and keeps it strong.
Teacher’s tip: verses 3 and 4 both talk about looking at the sky again. Children often mix them; point out the difference early.
