Musa (as) now asks his third and last question to Khidhr (as), who al-
ready knows, by the wisdom granted to him by Allah, whether or not to
seek a wage for his work. Such a practice is not obligatory, because it de-
pends upon the situation and circumstances. As believers do everything
for Allah’s good pleasure, their labor can be paid work or freely donated
work. If it is paid, the money is used to win His good pleasure yet again.
It is the person’s individual decision whether or not to seek payment in
the light of the Prophets’ and Messengers’ knowledge and Allah’s com-
mand.
