The ruling on employees holding a wedding feast for the work manager on the occasion of his promotion
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In the name of Allah. Your Eminence, father, the questioner says: We have a manager at our workplace who has been promoted, and the employees in the administration want to hold a feast for him on the occasion of that promotion. Is it permissible for me to participate in that feast with them? And is it permissible for the manager to accept that feast?
Answer:
I fear that this is a bribe; you are offering him a bribe so that he will be lenient with you and forgive you for not attending or for being late to work. Therefore, this should not be done. There is a doubt (shubhah) in this. Yes.
