No more than 25 per cent salary cut for debt allowed
The Fatwa and Legislation Department at the Ministry of Justice has issued a new Fatwa stipulating that the deduction of more than 25 per cent of the salary of an employee to cover a debt is not allowed.
Previously, the department received a letter from a government department saying that a number of employees had complained about big amounts being deducted from their salaries every month to cover various kinds of obligations (alimony or debt) decided by courts.
However, the government department questioned the legality and the percentage of these deductions. Source
