Question
A qaari is a faasiq. He cuts his beard. He conducts a Tajweed class in the Musjid. Is it permissible to learn qiraa't from him?
Answer
One should not learn Qur'aan recitation or any other branch of Deeni knowledge from a faasiq. The detrimental effect of the faasiq's fisq is spiritually contagious. It will therefore be harmful for the student. A faasiq should not be permitted to conduct a class in the Musjid. The trustees are liable for the sin.
