The Trade in Scientific Research
What is the ruling on a person trading in conducting scientific research in exchange for a sum of money paid by the student to the researcher?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: this work is forbidden, and its earnings are impure. The one who does it must repent to God Almighty for the deceit and betrayal involved, and God knows best.
