Hadith.3597 - It is reported from al-Fadl ibn Abi Qurrah that he said
I asked Abu Abdillah (as), "These people claim that the earnings of a teacher are unlawful." Imam (as) replied: "The enemies of Allah (swt) have lied! They only intend to prevent their children from learning the Quran. If a man were to give the teacher the blood money of his child, it would be lawful for the teacher."
3597 - وَ رُوِيَ عَنِ اَلْفَضْلِ بْنِ أَبِي قُرَّةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ
قُلْتُ لَهُ إِنَّ هَؤُلاَءِ يَقُولُونَ إِنَّ كَسْبَ اَلْمُعَلِّمِ سُحْتٌ فَقَالَ "كَذَبَ أَعْدَاءُ اَللَّهِ إِنَّمَا أَرَادُوا أَنْ لاَ يُعَلِّمُوا أَوْلاَدَهُمُ اَلْقُرْآنَ لَوْ أَنَّ رَجُلاً أَعْطَى اَلْمُعَلِّمَ دِيَةَ وَلَدِهِ كَانَ لِلْمُعَلِّمِ مُبَاحاً".
