Question Summary:
What should be done with stationery given to students?

Question Detail:

I have a query

Answer :

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

We apologize for the belated response.

If a school gives students a stationery requirement list for their personal use, then the stationery belongs to the student.

If there is any stationery left over, the remainder should be returned to that particular student.[1]

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
