Is it permissible to take payment for extra work that was not performed?

Question:
I am an employee in a government department, and this department assigns its staff to work outside of office hours on Thursday and Friday evenings. None of the assigned employees come to work. After Allah guided me to the truth, I asked the HR manager to monitor the employees' work and not assign them, but he did not listen to me because he assigns us but does not attend himself. I also asked to have my name removed from the assignments, knowing that I need this amount of money because I support a large family, and if I do not take this money, someone else will take it by any means. What is the solution? Please advise us, may Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
This is not permissible. This is betrayal by both the one giving the order and all those who are ordered. Ordering work without it being done is betrayal. If people betray, do not be with them. If people betray, do not enter into their company, do not take from them, and do not take their money. Thank your Lord for safety, and do not be with the betrayers. We ask Allah for safety and well-being.
