Purchasing Zakat al-Fitr Four Days Before the Festival

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible to purchase Zakat al-Fitr four days before the festival and then distribute it afterwards?

Answer:
The purchase does not contradict the ruling. If he purchased it on the first day of Ramadan or in Sha'ban, the purchase does not contradict the ruling.
