Is it permissible to use previously recorded and transcribed lectures, obtained without charge, for the purpose of a lesson presented by a student to her classmates in the same subject and for the same professor?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is permissible to transcribe lectures and benefit from them if the professor who owns the intellectual material does not object, as this signifies her permission to utilize it. However, if the professor prohibits it and declares her reservation of the rights to her intellectual material, then it is not permissible to infringe upon her intellectual property without her permission.
