Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, says: If a man asks me to teach his children the Qur'an and says to me, "I do not know how much to give you, so tell me how much money you want,"
Answer:
This is a contract that is not permissible. You should tell him, "Give us whatever is easy for you. Give us whatever is easy. If it is acceptable to you, take it and study; if it is not acceptable to you, may Allah provide for you."
