It is not permissible to take sums of money from workers because such dealings involve (excessive uncertainty), which is prohibited by Islamic law. Furthermore, an unspecified fee for an unknown duration is not permissible. However, it is permissible to take a known fee paid either in a single installment or in installments. Attention must be paid to Islamic transgressions, poor treatment, and the unlawful seizure of people's rights in such work and contracts.
