Surah An-Nisa, Ayah 116 (4:116)
إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا يَغْفِرُ أَن يُشْرَكَ بِهِۦ وَيَغْفِرُ مَا دُونَ ذَٰلِكَ لِمَن يَشَآءُ ۚ وَمَن يُشْرِكْ بِٱللَّهِ فَقَدْ ضَلَّ ضَلَـٰلًۢا بَعِيدًا ١١٦
inna l-laha lā yaghfiru an yush'raka bihi wayaghfiru mā dūna dhālika liman yashāu waman yush'rik bil-lahi faqad ḍalla ḍalālan baʿīdā
The meaning of the ayah
Indeed, Allāh does not forgive association with Him, but He forgives what is less than that for whom He wills. And he who associates others with Allāh has certainly gone far astray.

The words of the ayah
Your child memorizes the ayah word by word, then puts the words back in order in the “Put the words in order” game:
إِنَّٱللَّهَلَايَغْفِرُأَنيُشْرَكَبِهِۦوَيَغْفِرُمَادُونَذَٰلِكَلِمَنيَشَآءُ ۚوَمَنيُشْرِكْبِٱللَّهِفَقَدْضَلَّضَلَـٰلًۢابَعِيدًا
