Ruling on taking money for one who works without a salary
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
I am a marriage officiator who works without a salary. Sometimes, some people come to me to contract their marriages, and they are outside the city, about 20 km or 15 km away. So I go to them, and then they give me a sum of money without me asking for it! What is the ruling on that?
We say: There is nothing wrong with it. If it is without you asking for it, there is no blame on you for taking what they give you. However, if you are an employee, do not take anything.
The questioner: And what if it is inside the city, O Shaykh?The Shaykh: Whether inside the city or outside, both are the same.
