The Ruling on Taking a Wage for Teaching the Qur'an

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, he says: I am a teacher of the Qur'an and I take a wage for teaching the Qur'an. Is there any objection to that?

Answer:
No, this is permissible. It is permissible to take a wage for teaching the Qur'an. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
You are most entitled to take wages for doing a Ruqya with Allah's Book.إن أحق ما أخذتم عليه أجرا كتاب الله.
Sahih al-Bukhari 5737
Yes.
