Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: What is the ruling on taking a fee for teaching the Noble Qur'an and the Hadith, and on taking a fee for acts of righteousness and good?
Answer:
Taking a fee for teaching the Qur'an is permissible, except if he has a salary from an association or from the government, in which case it is not permissible for him to take anything from the students. However, if he does not have a salary, it is permissible for him to take from the students so that he can devote himself to teaching, because he needs expenses for himself and his children, so he takes. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih al-Bukhari 5737, so there is no harm in that. Taking a fee for teaching is permissible, except if he has a salary from the authorities or from associations, in which case it is not permissible for him to take from the students.
