Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is there a reward for giving charity to a disbeliever?

Answer:
If he is in need and it is voluntary charity, there is no harm in it; there is a reward for every living being. As for zakah, no, it is not given except to a Muslim.
