The teacher’s delay in entering the classroom

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: I am a teacher in one of the schools, and I often delay entering the classroom by approximately five minutes, and this happens daily. He asks: Is this permissible, or is it not permissible?

The Shaykh:
This is a deficiency on your part. If you are late for the lesson, the loss is upon you. Also, this is contrary to the regulations. If you violate the regulations, you expose yourself to accountability. Yes.

The questioner:
The teacher, O Shaykh.

The Shaykh:
Or the teacher. It is not permissible for the teacher to be late and miss part of delivering the lesson, because this is a trust in his charge. He should not diminish any of the time, because he receives a salary in exchange for teaching, so he should not diminish any of the teaching. Yes.
