The obligation of the supervisor of workers who do not pray
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, I am a supervisor of workers. Some of these workers do not pray, and some of them pray inside the workshop. Is there a sin on me for leaving them without prayer?
Answer:
You are required to enjoin good and forbid evil, and to inform the employer who brought them in. You are required to inform him that they do not pray, because they are under his responsibility and you are supervising them. How can you supervise their worldly work and not supervise their religious matters? So, first, you should advise them. If they respond, praise be to Allah; otherwise, inform the employer or guarantor so that he can remove them from the country.
