The ruling on giving a worker a monthly percentage in place of a salary

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: What is the ruling on using a percentage for workers in place of a salary, where he gives them a monthly percentage and does not give them a monthly salary?

Answer:
The workers are subject to a system established by the state, and one does not deviate from this system. One deals with the workers in accordance with the system, the recruitment system, and does not deviate from it. This is because the authority has only permitted this system. Therefore, obedience to it is obligatory, because it is a command to do good and not a command to sin. And because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Muslims are bound by their conditionsالمسلمون على شروطه
The intention of the authority is to regulate affairs and prevent chaos. Therefore, one must deal with the system. What conforms to the system is adopted, and what contradicts the system is not permissible. Yes.

May Allah reward you,
