The ruling on harvesting crops and weaving cloth with a portion of the produce, and spending the 'Id sacrifice

The questioner : Now, is it permissible to harvest crops with a portion of the produce? I mean, your father says, "Harvest this crop, and you will have a quarter, or a half, or a third of it."

The Shaykh : The correct view is that it is permissible, because it is known and visible.

The questioner : Ahmad.

The Shaykh : As for weaving cloth with a portion of it: it is permissible to weave cloth with a portion of it. I mean, I give you wool and say, "Take this, weave it into a cloth, and you will have half of it." The correct view is that it is permissible. These people say it is not permissible, because it is not permissible to give a worker a portion of the actual property; rather, he is to be given from the earnings. As for giving him from what is produced from it, that is not permissible.

The presenter : Yes.

The Shaykh : There is no evidence for this except that he says, "Because this is your property, it cannot be a partnership with you in it."

The questioner : Yes. What?

The Shaykh : What?

The questioner : What is the issue with the 'Id sacrifice?

The Shaykh : No, no, because the 'Id sacrifice is an act of devotion. The 'Id sacrifice is an act of devotion that you have given as charity; you cannot spend any part of the charity as payment for wages.
