The answer

A Muslim must fulfill conditions and contracts, for 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." Therefore, it is not permissible for your friend to be late for work, nor is it permissible for you to be late for him. Rather, you must advise him and inform the partners. Moreover, combining a fixed salary with a percentage of profits is not permissible for a partner by labor. However, it is permissible for a partner by capital if his work is under a separate contract and not required of him by virtue of being a partner. As for a partner by labor, he only takes a percentage of the profits.
