Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, among the questions that have come to the program, this questioner asks and says: If a manager imposes a financial penalty on an employee who borrows from the trust fund of the institution or the ministry, what is the ruling on the manager imposing a financial penalty on this employee who borrows from the trust fund of the institution or the ministry?
Answer:
This depends on the regulations. If the manager is authorized by the regulations to do this, then there is no harm. But if he is not authorized, then it is referred back to the regulations. The regulations contain provisions specifying what is required of one who embezzles something, or denies it, or rejects it. So it is referred back to the regulations. Yes.
