Question

My classmates want to give a gift to the class teacher (non-muslim) as she is leaving the school this year, so they are taking money from all the students in order to buy a gift. My question is whether I should give money or not?

Answer

If you need to give it then you rather give it on your own.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Ask Mufti Online

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.
