What is the ruling on obtaining the verbally agreed-upon salary difference from the manager through commissions from tenders that award work to companies, given the manager's intransigence in paying this difference, and knowing that there is no official proof of this agreement?

Entitlement to the increase depends on the nature of the agreement:

- If the agreement was a contract stipulating that the wage includes the increase, then it is your right, even if the contract was not written.

- If the agreement was merely a promise or an additional bonus at the discretion of the official, then the company is not obligated to provide it, unless the promise resulted in an increase in your work that was not obligatory under the original contract.

- If you were entitled to the increases and were prevented from receiving them, and you could not obtain your right except by stratagem, then this is permissible according to some scholars (the issue of al-Zafar - gaining one's right by force or stratagem).

- Piety does not prevent striving to obtain one's right through legitimate means. Allah Almighty says: "And whoever fears Allah - He will make for him a way out And will provide for him from where he does not expect."
