Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: The director of our government department grants some employees a temporary assignment without them actually going to the assigned post, as a reward for their diligence in their work. The temporary assignment is within the authority granted to him by regulation. The question is: Is it permissible to receive the temporary assignment allowance without going, if it is merely on paper?
Answer:
This is a regulatory matter. If the regulation applies to it, there is nothing wrong with it. However, if it is a deception of the regulation, it is not valid; but if one deceived the regulation, it is not permissible.
