The Ruling on Cheating in School Exams and How to Forbid It
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
From Shuqra, a message sent by a listener who indicated his name with the letters (N. M. M), he says: I am a student in one of the schools, and I see my classmates, may Allah guide them and us, cheating in the exam. So, am I obligated to forbid this evil, or what do you advise me to do, knowing that I am afraid of them?
Answer: Cheating in the exam is not permissible. This is a form of betrayal, and it is obligatory to advise them and warn them against this action; because the believer is the brother of the believer, and the Muslim is the brother of the Muslim. And Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) says: [Al-Anfal: 27], and He says: [An-Nisa: 58], and He says in describing the believers: [Al-Mu’minun: 8]. And you should monitor this according to your ability with the person in charge, in order to fulfill the trust. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good and do you good.

O you who have believed, do not betray Allah and the Messenger or betray your trusts while you know [the consequence].
يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لا تَخُونُوا اللَّهَ وَالرَّسُولَ وَتَخُونُوا أَمَانَاتِكُمْ وَأَنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَIndeed, Allah commands you to render trusts to whom they are due
إِنََّ اللَّهَ يَأْمُرُكُمْ أَنْ تُؤَدُّوا الأَمَانَاتِ إِلَى أَهْلِهَاAnd they who are to their trusts and their promises attentive
وَالَّذِينَ هُمْ لِأَمَانَاتِهِمْ وَعَهْدِهِمْ رَاعُونََThe presenter: May Allah reward you with good and do you good.
