Ruling on distributing zakat al-fitr with less than a sa'
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q123: The questioner says: If I give zakat al-fitr, is it a condition that the amount given to one poor person must not be less than a sa', or is it permissible even if it is less than that?
A123: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) made obligatory as zakat al-fitr a sa' of barley or similar food. It is permissible for a Muslim to give the sa' to one person or to several people. The important thing is that the giver provides a full sa'. As for the recipients, there is no objection to several people sharing the zakat of one person.
