Gifts from a student to his teacher, and whether they fall under bribery

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, does what a student gives his teacher as gifts fall under bribery?

Answer:
We told you that no official, teacher, or anyone else should accept anything from those who come to them or from students, because this inclines him toward the one who gave it. A person is human, a person is human, so if a student gives you something, your heart inclines toward him and your affection for him grows, and perhaps this leads you to pass him in an exam when he does not deserve it, or to add points for him when he does not deserve them, saying, "So-and-so deserves it, so-and-so is good with me, and so-and-so does not deserve this." Yes.
And if people know that you accept such things, they will also accuse you and start talking about you, so you have stopped backbiting about yourself. Be completely honest.

The presenter:
Yes.
