It is a Muslim's right to raise their academic level, improve their material and moral conditions, and they are asked to always strive for progress, as Umar ibn Abd al-Aziz said. We advise you to seek Allah's help and master your work as a teacher. There is no harm in dedicating yourself to study if the administration permits it, and the money you earn is lawful, by Allah's will.
