Maintenance officials eating from meals to be served to plane passengers without obtaining permission

424

A: If the reality is exactly as what is mentioned in the question, you have started your work at the company according to a contract. Thus, you only have the rights that are mentioned in the contract subject to its Shar`y (Islamically lawful) conditions including securing the meal which is mentioned in the question. (Part No. 15; Page No. 70) On the other hand, it is impermissible that you violate the contract by eating the meals which are allocated for planes unless you obtain the permission of the decision-makers amongst the officials of your company. We advise you to refer to the latter and explain the matter to them in order to reach suitable solutions. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
