فَلَا بَأْسَ أَنْ يَكُونَ أَجِيراً يُؤْجِرُ نَفْسَهُ أَوْ وَلَدَهُ أَوْ قَرَابَتَهُ أَوْ مِلْكَهُ أَوْ وَكِيلَهُ فِي إِجَارَتِهِ لِأَنَّهُمْ وُكَلَاءُ الْأَجِيرِ مِنْ عِنْدِهِ لَيْسَ لَهُمْ بِوَلَاءِ الْوَالِي نَظِيرُ الْحَمَّالِ الَّذِي يَحْمِلُ شَيْئاً بِشَيْءٍ مَعْلُومٍ إِلَى مَوْضِعٍ مَعْلُومٍ فَيَحْمِلُ ذَلِكَ الشَّيْءَ الَّذِي يَجُوزُ لَهُ حَمْلُهُ بِنَفْسِهِ أَوْ بِمَمْلُوكِهِ أَوْ دَابَّتِهِ أَوْ يُؤَاجِرُ نَفْسَهُ فِي عَمَلٍ يَعْمَلُ ذَلِكَ الْعَمَلَ بِنَفْسِهِ أَوْ بِمَمْلُوكِهِ أَوْ قَرَابَتِهِ أَوْ بِأَجِيرٍ مِنْ قِبَلِهِ ‘There is no harm in a hired person renting out themselves, their child, their relatives, their property, or their agent in the rental, because they are agents of the hired person and do not have authority over the ruler, similar to a porter who carries something with a known item to a known place.
He holds that thing which he is allowed to carry himself, or with his servant or beast of burden, or he rents out himself to perform a task which he does with his own effort, or with his servant, relative, or a hired worker under his direction.
فَهَذِهِ وُجُوهٌ مِنْ وُجُوهِ الْإِجَارَاتِ حَلَالٌ لِمَنْ كَانَ مِنَ النَّاسِ مَلِكاً أَوْ سُوقَةً أَوْ كَافِراً أَوْ مُؤْمِناً فَحَلَالٌ إِجَارَتُهُ وَ حَلَالٌ كَسْبُهُ مِنْ هَذِهِ الْوُجُوهِ ‘These are forms of rentals that are lawful for anyone who owns, drives, whether he is a disbeliever, or a believer.
