The answer

The reference for this is the school system, labor law, and the agreed-upon conditions at the time of contract. If the responsible administration approves granting a leave, there is no harm in utilizing it. The employee must adhere to the terms of the contract, as Allah Almighty says: "O you who have believed, fulfill [your] contracts," and the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Muslims are bound by their conditions." One must not deceive the administration by falsifying facts, such as taking sick leave without being ill, as this is forbidden deception.
