đ The Forgotten Value of Quran Teachers
Itâs truly heartbreaking that in our time, people expect Qurâan teachers â those who dedicate their lives to preserving and teaching the very words of Allah â to be paid less, as if their efforts are of lower worth. Subáž„ÄnAllÄh, this is the Book that brings light to the heart, peace to the soul, and guidance to every aspect of life. Yet the very people who spend their hours teaching tajwÄ«d, recitation, and meaning are undervalued.
We will pay tutors high fees for math, science, or sports lessons, but when it comes to the Qurâan, suddenly the mindset changes: âShouldnât it be free?â or âWhy is it so expensive?â
This stigma is not only sad, it reflects how far our priorities have shifted.
The Prophet ï·ș said: *âThe best among you are those who learn the Qurâan and teach it.â (Bukhari)
If teaching the Qurâan is the best of professions, then why do we treat it as the least deserving?
Honoring Qurâan teachers with fair compensation is not just a matter of money it is a matter of respect, of acknowledging their sacrifice, and of protecting the next generationâs connection to the Book of Allah.
Letâs break this stigma. Supporting Qurâan teachers is supporting the Qurâan itself.
Allah please keep my intentions pure â„ïž
