Keeping an employee without fixing the salary is not permissible; this makes the transaction invalid. It is necessary to fix the salary at the time of the contract, and in case it is not fixed, he will be entitled to 'Ujrat-e-Misl' (customary wage), meaning he will be entitled to the salary that such a person would receive working elsewhere with the same responsibility.

The Chaudhry's Sacrifice and Love for Religious Scholars
...A Chaudhry used to dedicate a whole year's supply of wheat for the students of a madrasa. A mischievous person, out of enmity and hatred towards the Maulana Sahib, expressed his ill feelings in such a way that while searching for the address, he reached the Chaudhry's house and said: "Chaudhry Sahib! Go to the madrasa and find out what misappropriations are happening in the name of the students! Half of the wheat goes to the madrasa... and half to the Moulvi Sahib's house..." May Allah have mercy on the Chaudhry's grave where that anonymous mujahid is sleeping... Chaudhry stood up... embraced that mischievous person, thanked him, and said, "My friend, why didn't you come earlier? By telling me this, you have helped me. From today onwards, one year's worth of wheat for Maulana's house and a separate year's worth of wheat for the madrasa..." The last words spoken by the Chaudhry deserve to be written in gold. He said: "Listen! Feeding the students is also a great thing, but for me, it is a matter of pride that the Muhaddith (hadith scholar) of the time eats my wheat, whose entire day is spent reading and teaching 'Qalallah' (Allah said) and 'Qala Rasulullah' (The Messenger of Allah said)... I have no doubt about its reward." Allah-hu-Akbar (Allah is the Greatest) _____________________________________ Quoted. Selection: Islamic Tube Pro App
