Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what advice do you have for the employers who mistreat their workers?

Answer:
This is not permissible. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Give the worker his wages before his sweat dries.أعطوا الأجير أجره قبل أن يجف عرقه
Sunan Ibn Majah 2443Sahih (Darussalam)
It is obligatory for the employer to give the worker his right and to hasten to do so, without delaying or deceiving him in this matter. Indeed, this is injustice; it is among the greatest injustices against the servants of Allah. Yes.
