Holding the manager responsible for debtors unsettled accounts
Question
Person A runs a business for person B. There are some customers who buy on credit. Person A gets a straight monthly salary only. 2 customers haven't paid for 4 months now, so person A was asked to leave, and person A had to pay person B, the owner, the value not paid by the 2 customers.
Is this correct? Please explain
Answer
The manager is not responsible for the debtor.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
