Re: worldly notions/concepts and philosophical viewpoint
The way I look at it is where there is a contract then having loyalty is required Islamically … How you define “loyalty” is another matter it should be specific to the contract … So as azajali is saying if the contractual requirements are being met then that is loyalty … but if above and beyond that is being required then one ought to have his contract modified or at the very least paid overtime for putting in extra work .
For me it is clear cut … The bosses can do what they like I will do what I feel is best for my role and provide a suitable level of input - If I feel I am doing more than that then I will ask for more.
bolded is the key.
Considering what your employer thinks loyality is, if your employer ‘request’ you to work extra hours and you will be paid, do have a choice?
