Question:
Regarding the teacher of the Qur'an, is he permitted to take a fee for teaching the Qur'an?
Answer:
If he will devote himself to it and leave his other occupations to devote himself to teaching the Qur'an, yes, he may take a fee. From where else would he live except by this? So he takes it. But if he has what suffices him, he should make his work for the sake of Allah the Exalted and Majestic. Yes.
