Question:
If an employee has discharged the job that was assigned to him and he intends
to benefit from the working hours by reciting the Qur’aan or reading something
beneficial or he intends to take a nap in order to rest a little, is there
anything upon him [of sin]?
Response:
There is nothing upon him as long as he has discharged the job that was
assigned to him. But if he is negligent or falls short in discharging his job,
then such is unlawful and it is not permissible. As regards taking a nap, there
is no concession for him regarding it, because he does not have control over
himself as he may sleep through his work without perceiving it.
