Question:
We say: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Some people of good bring some sweets for the students of the memorization circle in the mosque. The question is: Is it permissible for the teacher of the circle to eat with the students?
Answer:
Do not bring these sweets. I am afraid that this resembles the Christians who distribute sweets on their occasions and in their prayers. So, do not bring these sweets into the mosques, and do not accustom the students to this. Yes.
