Is a husband's salary considered permissible or impermissible if he is absent from work and sends medical certificates to justify his absence, after being arbitrarily transferred?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
If the husband suffers psychological harm and his health condition is diagnosed, and he sends a medical certificate to the administration to that effect, and the administration pays him this month's salary, then there is no blame upon him for that, whether he takes medication or not. The criterion is the truthfulness of his health condition and the medical certificate.
