Recruiting a teacher to teach music

Q: If a female works for a recruitment company for schools (they provide teachers to schools) and these temporary teachers can be provided for any class such as music, English, business, maths (it’s not for a specific lesson). Is their income halal even if we know that they will be supplying teachers for a music lesson?

A:  Music is declared haraam in Islam. Hence, she should not make arrangements for a teacher to teach music.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
