A Gift for the Student to the Organized Teacher

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A group of students had one of them give a gift to their teacher, the instructor of this group, and he delivered it to the teacher without informing him of the name of the student who gave it. Does this fall under bribery?

Answer:
Yes, it is not permissible for the teacher, if he has a salary, if the teacher has a salary from the state or from an association, then it is not permissible for him to take anything from the students, because he is in a position of authority over the giver, and it is a place where he is in a position of authority over the giver, and the giver wants to win over the teacher, so this is not permissible, yes.
