#1064: On Teaching The Qur’an On Thursdays
Assalamualaikum warahmatullah wabarakatuh.
I have a question and I need an urgent answer.
What is the Islamic rulings on Teaching Qur’an on Thursdays? People say the Mallam’s Knowledge will be decreasing, How true is it?
ANSWER:
Wa Alaykum Salam Warahmatullah Wabarakaatuh.
Alhamdulillah.
To our knowledge, there is nothing wrong with teaching the Book of Allah, or anything of the knowledge of the Shar’iah on any particular day among the days. Had there been any day or days upon which this was forbidden or dangerous, the Rasul salallahu alayhi would have narrated to us.
Know, O beloved One that anything that was not warned against by the Rasul salallahu alayhi wasallam directly or indirectly is permissible by consensus and it is bid’ah and a claim of the knowledge of the unseen for anyone after him to make such an assertion.
Let the Qur’an be taught on every day, and let the children perfect their knowledge of the Din.
Barakallahu fikum.
As for that which was mentioned by An-Nafraawi in his Commentary on the Risaalah Al-Fawaaqihi Ad-Dawaani and Abdullatif bn Duhaish in his book Al-Kataatib that Umar bn Al-Khattaab commanded that the days of Thursdays and Fridays be set aside for children learning in the Makaatib to rest and that he prayed for those who practice this and against those who failed to practice it that their wealth be constricted on them, there is no Isnad that is sound and strong to this effect and which may be relied upon to authentically attribute this act to Umar bn Al-Khattaab radiyallahu anhu.
Jazakumullahu Khayran.
Barakallahu fikum
