Ruling on overtime pay without staying after work hours

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We are a group of employees working in a state-owned company. This company gives us a monthly sum of money as compensation for overtime work after regular hours. However, we do not stay after work. What is the ruling on this money? Yes, that is correct.

Answer:
This depends on the regulations, according to the company's regulations. If the company's regulations permit this, then there is no harm. But if the company's regulations do not permit this, and there is deception involved in deceiving the regulations, this is not permissible. Muslims are bound by their conditions.
