Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: It was reported from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said: “It is not one of us who incites a woman against her husband or a slave against his master.” Abu Dawud narrated it. He says: Is a worker or a driver analogous to a slave?

Answer:
Yes, it is analogous to him. You come to a worker or a tenant and say to him: “Leave your job with this person and come to me; I will increase your pay,” or “So-and-so has more.” This is not permissible. This involves corruption and harm to your brother, so it is not permissible for you to do this.
