Question:
A question from Ali Salem of Jeddah, the most recent one, says: The King (may Allah preserve him) was generous with a gratuity of a salary increase on the salary of Ramadan. However, the Endowments Authority was asking the imams of the mosques: Are you an employee or not? If one was an employee, the gratuity was not paid to him, on the pretext of the repetition of the gratuity, even though the jobs are different. So if a cleaner says to them: I am not an employee, while he works as a guard or the like, what is the ruling on what he took? Does he have to return it or not?
Answer:
This is a matter for the responsible authority. Every employee refers to the responsible authority. Yes.
