Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your Eminence the Shaykh, we ask your permission to ask a few questions from your sons. May Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He, make them beneficial. This one says: This institute gathers employees who are judges, administrators, specialists, inspectors, teachers, and military personnel. They are filling this great gap and are waiting for a guiding word from Your Eminence regarding sincerity, patience, cooperation, advice, and calling to Allah. So what is your advice for the workers at this institute?
Answer:
We advise everyone to fear Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He), and know that victory belongs to Allah and His servants, and that each person should fulfill what has been entrusted to him, discharge the trust, fear Allah and watch over Him, and know that he is accountable. It is obligatory for everyone to discharge the trust. Allah the Exalted said:[An-Nisa 4:58] And Allah the Exalted said: [Al-Mu'minun 23:8] And Allah the Exalted said: [Al-Anfal 8:27] Therefore, it is obligatory for everyone to fear Allah, to give sincere advice to Allah and His servants, to fulfill what Allah has made obligatory upon them, to cooperate on righteousness and piety, and to advise one another until they fulfill their obligations with understanding and their conscience is clear. We ask Allah for everyone to be granted success and guidance.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.

Indeed, Allah commands you to render trusts to whom they are due
إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَأْمُرُكُمْ أَن تُؤَدُّوا الْأَمَانَاتِ إِلَىٰ أَهْلِهَاAnd they who are to their trusts and their promises attentive
وَالَّذِينَ هُمْ لِأَمَانَاتِهِمْ وَعَهْدِهِمْ رَاعُونَO you who have believed, do not betray Allah and the Messenger or betray your trusts while you know [the consequence].
يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تَخُونُوا اللَّهَ وَالرَّسُولَ وَتَخُونُوا أَمَانَاتِكُمْ وَأَنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَThe presenter:
May Allah reward you.
