Does a mother sin if she used sewing tools from her work for personal use and to help people, and is it permissible for her to use what remains of these tools now, especially since the employer was stingy and unjust to her with regard to her wages?

It is forbidden for an employee to dispose of the employer's property without their permission. If the female employee did so without permission, she must return what she took or ask for the employer's forgiveness. She must return the remaining items unless the employer no longer needs them, in which case she may benefit from them. Neither a low wage nor a high wage permits the female employee to transgress against the employer's property. She must demand her rights through legitimate means.
