Question:
Shaykh, what is the ruling on teaching the Qur'an and taking a fee for it from the teacher?
Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that, if he does not have a salary, he takes from the students he teaches, there is nothing wrong with that, the most deserving thing for which you take a fee is the Book of Allah, the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said. But if he has a salary, it is not permissible for him to take from the students, yes.
