Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: What is the ruling on taking a fee for teaching the Qur'an? He has submitted a request regarding this to the responsible authorities.
Answer:
Taking a fee for teaching the Qur'an is permissible; it is permissible, especially if one needs it. If one is self-sufficient and refrains from taking it, counting the reward with Allah, that is better. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih al-Bukhari 5737 So taking a fee for teaching the Qur'an is not a problem, and there is no problem with taking a fee for ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation). Yes.
