Taking Payment for Teaching the Quran

Question
A Quran teacher was teaching the Quran in a mosque, and after the mosques were closed, she started teaching her students at her home. They offered her an amount of money in exchange for teaching them, knowing that her financial situation is difficult. Is it permissible for her to take this money?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: It is permissible to take a fee for teaching the Quran; because it involves spreading the religion and teaching it, and God knows best.
