The ruling on giving zakah to those whose Islam is not known

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah greet you, may Allah reward you. Is zakah given to domestic workers when we do not know whether they are Muslims or non-Muslims?

Answer:
No, if you do not know that they are Muslims, you must verify this, for zakah is not permissible for them. Zakah is for Muslims, not for others. Yes.
