The Ruling on Taking a Wage for Teaching the Qur'an and Islamic Knowledge

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner asks, O honorable Shaykh! He says: What is the ruling on taking a wage for teaching the Qur'an and Islamic knowledge in mosques and schools?

Answer:
There is no harm in that; because of his saying (peace and blessings be upon him):
You are most entitled to take wages for doing a Ruqya with Allah's Book.إن أحق ما أخذتم عليه أجرًا كتاب الله
Sahih al-Bukhari 5737
So there is nothing wrong with taking a wage from the student to teach him the Qur'an or to teach him the hadiths. Yes.
