Is it permissible for a teacher to say: "Our profession is like the profession of the prophets"?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Education is the mission of the prophets, and the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Indeed, Allah did not send me to cause hardship or to seek hardship, but He sent me as a teacher making things easy." So, if a person intends to teach people goodness, and that this is the mission of the prophets, then his words are correct and there is no blame in them.
