Question
I took upon myself to arrange the books in the Beit Midrash every day as a volunteer. One day, someone noticed there were many books in the Beit Midrash, and it bothered him a lot. He said he would commit to giving one hundred dollars to whoever would arrange the books. Am I allowed to take the money for something I would have done anyway?
Answer
It is permitted because every day he is entitled to one hundred dollars.
