Recruiting workers and denying all their rights


499

A: It is impermissible for employers to unjustly take employees' rights and have them falsely sign a document to the effect that they have already received them in return for shifting their sponsorship. Moreover, the official responsible for this may not help employers in sin and abusing people's rights unjustly. Allah (Exalted be He) stated: Help you one another in Al-Birr and At-Taqwâ (virtue, righteousness and piety); but do not help one another in sin and transgression. And fear Allâh. Verily, Allâh is Severe in punishment. He (Exalted be He) also stated: And eat up not one another’s property unjustly (in any illegal way e.g. stealing, robbing, deceiving, etc.) May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
