The wage for working on cultivating the land before dividing the harvest

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Salih, may Allah preserve you, Abu 'Abd al-Majid al-Hamdani from Yemen says: I cultivated a piece of land, and its owner told me, "You and your family will have half the harvest, and one of my family members helped me." Do we take the wage for our work in cultivating the land before we divide the half among my family?

Answer:
This is a matter based on what you agree upon between yourselves and the landowner, according to what you both agree to regarding the work on this land. So whatever you agree upon regarding cultivating, planting, and utilizing the land, that is what is best and benefits everyone. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence the Shaykh
