In Monthly Salary the Number of Days Is Taken into Account

Question

Zayd took up teaching at a madrasa in October, in the middle of the month. For how many days and for how much time will he receive maintenance (kifaya), given that the month is of 31 days? Moreover, he began teaching from the 12th. Including the thirty-first, it comes to twenty days of the month, whereas for months of both 29 and 31 days the salary of a full month is for 30 days.

Answer

However many days a month has, he is entitled to salary for that many days; there is nothing complicated in this.
