A) When is traveling 160-260 km for work considered a secondment, when is its duration calculated, and is there a specific distance for it? B) Is it permissible to submit a secondment request for five days for a visit to another city that only takes one or two days? C) Is it permissible to calculate five days of secondment per month for a project 150 km away, and treat the travel time to and from home as normal working hours, without calculating overtime?

Summary of the Fatwa (definition): "Intidab" (secondment/detachment) is the exemption of an employee from their original duties to assign them another task, while retaining their salary, original position, and right to promotion. Its duration is calculated from the start of the assignment to the new task. What constitutes "intidab" is determined by general custom, or the specific custom of the company or entity where the employee works, whether stipulated in regulations or established in practice.

It is not permissible for the manager to count fictitious secondment days or to increase their number. The employee must submit a request only for the actual days they performed work while seconded. Working hours begin upon the employee's arrival at their workplace. If the project is far away and requires extra hardship, the manager may reward the employee as allowed by work regulations. However, it is not permissible to give them something not stipulated in the contract or not permitted by work regulations and the manager's authority. And Allah knows best.
