The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said, "Give to the worker his wages before his sweat dries" (Ibn Majah).” “And O my people! Give just measure and weight, nor withhold from the people the things that are their due” (Quran 11:85). Prophet Muhammad, (pbuh) also said, “I will be the opponent of three types of people on the Day of Judgment,” and he listed one of them as “one who hires a worker, but does not pay him his right wages owed to him after fulfilling his work.” (Bukhari) Prophet Muhammad, (pbuh) said, “Your servants/workers are your brothers whom God the most High has placed under your authority. Therefore, a person who has a brother under his authority, should feed him out of that which he eats himself and should dress him with the same kind of clothes which he wears himself; he should not assign work to him which is beyond his capacity, and if you do so, then help him in his work” (Bukhari)
