The ruling on imposing a monetary fine on students in a Qur'an memorization school

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: Is it permissible for a female teacher in a school for memorizing the Noble Qur'an to impose a fine on the students, requiring them to pay a sum of money if they do not memorize the board or the lesson?

Answer:
No, this is not permissible. This is not permissible. Punishment by money, and also, is it permissible for her to impose this? Is it permissible for her to impose on the school system what is not permissible? This is a matter for the principal and the Ministry. The school has no authority except to teach the subject of memorization. Praise be to Allah, if she memorizes it, that is for her benefit; if she does not memorize it, the loss is hers. Yes.
