The Ruling on Imposing a Fine or Deducting from Salary for Late Arrival

Assalamu Alaikum! Respected Mufti Sahib, I wish to ask the following question: Our company imposes a fine on workers who arrive late. For example, if the official starting time is 8:30 AM, and a worker arrives at 9:01 AM, they are fined, even though there is a 30-minute grace period. Is it correct to impose such a fine on workers who arrive after 9:00 AM?

الجوابُ حامِدا ًو مُصلیِّا ً

Imposing a monetary fine on employees for arriving late is not permissible. However, if the company management establishes a policy that any employee arriving after the grace period will have a proportional amount deducted from their salary based on the time missed each month, then such a deduction is permissible and valid. This method will also fulfill the objective of the company management.

مأخَذُ الفَتوی

ففی حاشية ابن عابدين (رد المحتار): (قوله لا بأخذ مال في المذهب) قال في الفتح: وعن أبي يوسف يجوز التعزير للسلطان بأخذ المال. وعندهما وباقي الأئمة لا يجوز. اهـ. ومثله في المعراج، وظاهره أن ذلك رواية ضعيفة عن أبي يوسف. قال في الشرنبلالية: ولا يفتى بهذا لما فيه من تسليط الظلمة على أخذ مال الناس فيأكلونه اهـ (4/ 61)۔
وفیه أیضا: تحت (قوله: لو مدرس المدرسة) (إلی قوله) و في فتاوى الحانوتي يستحق المعلوم عند قيام المانع من العمل ولم يكن بتقصيره سواء كان ناظرا أو غيره كالجابي. (إلی قوله) وكذا لو بطل في يوم غير معتاد لتحرير درس إلا إذا نص الواقف على تقييد الدفع باليوم الذي يدرس فيه كما قلنا. (4/ 372) واللہ اعلم بالصواب
