The Ruling on a Teacher Passing Students on the Occasion of His Marriage

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
His other and final question, which is the third, says: Some teachers, may Allah preserve you, when they contract a marriage or get engaged or something like that, they pass the students as a gift to them. What is the truth of that and what is its ruling?

Answer:
This is forbidden and a lie. Passing them without a valid exam is not permissible. There is no connection between passing the students and the fact that he contracted a marriage or got married. He should thank Allah and perform the recommended wedding feast. As for passing the students in their exam when they have not passed, or increasing their grades on the occasion of his marriage, this is invalid and a betrayal of trust. Because he is entrusted with the students' exams and their passing or failing due to their laziness and negligence; he is a trustee and is entrusted with this. Yes.

The presenter:
Yes, may Allah bless you.
