Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. I am a student in one of the educational stages, and during exams, usually, a strict teacher comes to us, while the other teachers at our school allow us to cheat. The question is: Is this called cheating if the other teachers are pleased with it?
Answer:
Yes, this is cheating and is not permissible, even if the teacher is pleased with it. The teacher becomes a traitor, and you must be serious and leave off cheating. If it is possible for you to complain about this teacher to the principal, the person in charge, or the exam committee, then it is obligatory for you to do so, because this is forbidding what is wrong. Yes.
