Deception to delay the official work hours

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
What is your opinion regarding some employees who arrive at their workplace late and write their arrival time in the attendance register as an early time?

I ask you: Is this truth or a lie?The questioner: It is a lie.

The Shaykh: Is this a matter of trust or betrayal?The questioner: It is betrayal.

The Shaykh: Is the salary he receives in full, while his performance of work is deficient, lawful or is part of it lawful and part of it forbidden?The questioner: Part of it is forbidden.

The Shaykh: So: this person who wrote [the false time] has committed three sins in his action: lying, betrayal, and consuming wealth unjustly.

The questioner: But with the knowledge that the work manager has agreed to this with all of them.

The Shaykh: If the work manager agrees to this, he must be dismissed because he is a betrayer, unjust to himself, unjust to the employee, unjust to the state, and unjust to every person affiliated with this government, because he will take from the public treasury, which belongs to everyone, and give it to this man without right. He must be dismissed from his position. I ask you, if this is the case, to verify it and then raise this matter to the person above this man directly so that the necessary action is taken against him. Do not be negligent about this; report this man so that he may be disciplined, and perhaps he will reform and others will reform through his example.
