Is it permissible for a university professor to add 15 marks for a poor student so that his average remains good, and consequently, the charitable organization continues to financially support him?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

It is obligatory to adhere to the condition set by the entity responsible for the student's expenses, which is that the student must achieve a very good grade. It is not permissible for the student to resort to deception, nor is it permissible to assist him in doing so, because Allah Almighty says: "And do not cooperate in sin and aggression." Furthermore, giving him grades he does not deserve is lying, cheating, and falsification, and all of that is forbidden.
