Not only did Muslim empires in the past give scholars salaries, but they also gave salaries for students so that they can dedicate themselves to knowledge!
The initial owner of the Sukariyyah Hadīth School in Damascus made a Waqf for the Shaykh, a Mu’addhin, and 6 students to study Hadīth in it
Not just a scholarship (studying was free anyway), but a salary too
