Question:
He says: We work in a government department where the manager pays for extra hours, sometimes even when we do not perform the extra work. When we asked him about it, he answered that he has a certain number of hours to disburse each month. What is the ruling on that?
Answer:
This depends on the system established by the one in authority. If the action of this manager or this official conforms to the system, there is nothing wrong with it. However, if it contradicts the system, it is forbidden and not permissible.
