Getting paid to recite the Qur'an
Question
Is it permissable to get paid to recite the Quran even if flights/hotels etc are already being paid for?
Answer
Flights and hotels are not a payment. It is comparable to the hospitality that is shown to an aalim that is coming to give a bayaan, like feeding him, etc.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
