Disciplining children
Question
Is punishing students permissible in Islam (other than for praying purpose)? I heard it is not justified. What is your opinion?
Answer
Disciplining children lightly is permissible.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
