Q 1: I work at
the guest palace for just an hour or forty five minutes a day, for which I receive a reasonable monthly salary. What is the ruling on this?
Although the period of time that I spend at work is only short, I am paid a monthly salary that I am happy with. Is this time permissible in the Islamic Shari‘ah (law) i.e., to receive such a monthly salary for a relatively short period of work?
A:
If the time that you mentioned is the time that was set by the employer who pays you the monthly salary, there is nothing wrong with you receiving the month’s salary for that period of time. Some people attend work for a short amount of time, but in that time provide great benefit. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
