A:
It is permissible
to take sugar and use it in drinks etc., if the company clearly permits workers to do so. As for the Hadith, it was
narrated by
Abu Dawud,
Al-Hakim,
Ibn Khuzaymah, and
Al-Bayhaqy
on the authority of
Buraydah (may Allah be pleased with him):
"Whoever is appointed to do a task and is given their provision (in return for this work), whatever they take after that is illicit earnings."
May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
