Charging For No Show From Patient
Question: Can a doctor demand payment, if a patient fails to pitch up for an appointment?
Answer: A patient pays a doctor for his services. In the case where the patient failed to pitch up for an appointment, no service was rendered to the patient. Hence, the doctor can not charge the patient.
(ولا يستحق المشترك الأجر حتى يعمل كالقصار ونحوه) كفتال وحمال و دلال وملاح ،
لان الاجارة عقد معاوضة فتقتضى المساوة بينهما ، فما لم يسلم المعقود عليه للمستأجر لا يسلم له العوض ، والمعقود عليه هو العمل أو اثره على ما بينا فلا بد من العمل - زيلعى
