If the company's investments are all in lawful matters, and its employees are forced to have deductions from their salaries
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Because we assume that the investment...
The Shaykh : It deposits something else.
The questioner : Let us assume that all its investments are in lawful avenues; so what is our position as employees, I mean?
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : And we are forced to have the deductions; meaning, we have no choice, whether we take the retirement salary, and then we reach the retirement age?
The Shaykh : Ah, this is another matter that involves detail. Let me assume, for example, that an employee is retired in a specific year, let us say the age of fifty in his life. Now a question comes to my mind: does the retirement salary differ between an old employee and a new employee?
Another questioner : It may differ.
The questioner : Of course, it differs.
The Shaykh : Is there a difference?
The questioner : There is an increase.
The Shaykh : Okay; suppose a man was employed here, and one year has passed since his employment, he has one year of service. In this year, how many dinars were deducted from his salary, for example? Give me an example?
The questioner : Let us assume it is one hundred and fifty dinars.
The Shaykh : One hundred and fifty dinars, is this after he has completed this year and is retired, or must he complete years?
The questioner : No, he must complete a specific number of years.
The Shaykh : How many, how many years?
The questioner : It does not come to mind...
Another questioner : About twenty, the minimum is twenty.
The Shaykh : The minimum is twenty.
Another questioner : The minimum is twenty.
The questioner : Even ten years, I mean.
Another questioner : If his age is fifty-eight.
The Shaykh : The difference does not concern us, we are all just giving examples, I mean. Okay; twenty years, an employee who spent twenty years in his job is retired, and an employee who spent forty years in his job, is this conceivable?
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Okay; he is retired, he is retired to retirement, this second one, both of them were in the same rank, let us assume so. Okay; how much was deducted from the first employee's salary?
The questioner : This is a percentage, for example, they determine that for someone placed in it, let us assume he has thirty years of service.
The Shaykh : I gave you two examples...
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Twenty-one and forty-one, you are not giving examples now, you answer me - for example - the one with twenty years, how much was deducted from his salary?
The questioner : They may deduct from his salary an amount of twenty percent for the one with twenty years, and for the one with forty years, they deduct from his salary only ten percent.
The Shaykh : Why?
The questioner : This is what they determine; they say: whoever has been in service from such a time to such a time, twenty percent or twenty-five percent is deducted from his salary, and whoever has been in service longer, approximately ten to fifteen percent is deducted from him.
Another questioner : ... .
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : This is the intention, we are just calculating it as a percentage, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : Okay; put, put, put a number.
The questioner : ... eighty per year over twenty years, multiply it, it becomes...
The Shaykh : It is all gambling in gambling.
The questioner : They give you much more than what they took from you.
The Shaykh : Yes.
Another questioner : They give you more than what they took from you.
The Shaykh : How?
Another questioner : More.
The Shaykh: All right.
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : And others, they give them less than what they took from them? Is that not so? The last one.
Another questioner : ... four hundred dinars, they finish, they spend on your family...
The Shaykh : It deposits something else.
The questioner : Let us assume that all its investments are in lawful avenues; so what is our position as employees, I mean?
