To change the test results of soil

Q: I work in a textile company as the manager of one of its branches. My monthly salary is 1,500 riyals but the work conditions are very tough. I have to work for 12 hours and have huge responsibilities. My employer promised me verbally to give me 1% of the sales. After the inventory that went very well without any problems and upon traveling back home, he gave me 5,000 riyals only while I was supposed to receive 36,000 riyals as my percentage of all sales after working for three years. The percentage is calculated with each vacation after checking the inventory. Bear in mind that I found an additional 11,000 riyals and delivered them and had I taken the money, they would not have noticed. People in charge of other branches - two of whom are non-Muslims - get their percentage in full. My employer does not give me my full right because he knows I will not leave him since I quit my job in Egypt and there are not many jobs for me in the private sector in Egypt. I want to say that I took around 6,000 riyals from behind his back from fixing and selling some of the old items in the store (Part No. 15; Page No. 139) or selling the stuff that were not included in the inventory. What I did caused no harm to any of the workers. Is this amount rightful to me? The organization depends on inventories and if anything is missing, I will have to pay for it. They also have fixed prices such as 2,000 for the refrigerator while other stores sell it for 1,900 riyals. Should I advise the customers to buy from other places or sell it for 2,000 riyals? Bear in mind that I have talked to my employer in vain.


A: Firstly, You are praised for paying the amount of 11,000 riyals you found. This shows you are an honest man and an honorable Muslim. Secondly, You should pay the other amount to the owner and level up with him. If he gives you any money willingly, accept it. Further, you should seek the rightful means to claim your due percentage and any disagreement should be referred to the court. Thirdly, You must sell items in your employer's store according to the prices he fixes for you. (Part No. 15; Page No. 140) May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
