Question:

Is it permissible to teach Arabic or learn Quran online while someone is in Sunnah Itiqaf in a Musallah/Masjid? Answer: ﺑﺴﻢ اﷲ اﻟﺮﺣﻤﻦ اﻟﺮﺣﯿﻢ In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

Yes, it is permissible to teach Arabic or learn Quran online during itikaf, rather, to do such an action is rewarding because learning and teaching is an act of worship. Nevertheless, it is advised you utilise headphones and teach/learn at such a time when others in the Masjid will not be disturbed (Ahkam e Itikaf Fazail wa Masail: p. 61-62 [Maktaba Faisal Deoband]).

Only Allah knows best
