The answer

We stated in Fatwa no. 31081 that if there is an urgent need to teach the Qur’an and its sciences, and there is no sufficient money for that except from zakat, then it is permissible to spend zakat on it, in consideration of those who permitted it; otherwise, it is not. This applies to the supervisor of zakat collection and others.
