Dought & clear,- She stopped working for a while and a salary was transferred to her for this period; is it permissible for her to take this salary?.

I work as a doctor, and I was compelled to travel to join my husband
for amonth so that my residence visa would notbe cancelled. I did not
go to my work during this month and I did not take a leave of absence;
Itold them that my mother was sick and needed surgery (which was
indeed the case), and she lives in another city. In the beginning I
did not regard my salary as permissible, because I did not work during
thisperiod, and I offered thesalary to my fellow doctors; some of them
were prepared to agree and others refused. But the one who is in
chargeof my work said to me: They have no right to anything you have;
take your salary in full. That was because on the dayson which I did
not go to work, no one did the work instead of me. After that, I was
nine months pregnant and I was very tired and couldnot go to work. I
had some problems at the end of the pregnancy and I did not go to work
for another month, but this time my colleague did the work instead of
me. What is the ruling on my taking the salary in these two cases? If
it is not permissible to takethe salary, what should I do with it?
Should I give it in charity or give it to my colleagues? Now I feel
that my supplications (du'aa's) are not being answered – is this the
reason? Howsound is the hadeeth, "Make sure your food is halaal and
your supplications will be answered"?.
Praise be to Allah.
Firstly:
It is not permissible for you to take the salary in the two cases
mentioned, so long as you did not get a leave of absence that would
make it permissible for you to take the salary even though you did
notdo the work (sick leave, if you were actually ill, or maternity
leave, if thesystem allows the pregnant woman to takea leave with
pay).
Secondly:
In the first case, you should give in charity the salary that you got,
or donate it to public facilities that the state usually spends on,
and the closer it is to the field of your work (medicine and
hospitals), the better, because there was no one who took your placeat
work and you cannot give the money back to the state.
In the second case, it also seems that you should give it in charity,
because the one who did your work in your stead did not do it in an
official capacity with permission from the onewho is entitled to give
permission for that, and the employment system does not allow an
employee to appoint someone else to act in his stead, with or without
a salary.
... And Allaah knows best......
