Giving Zakah to the Needy Children of a Daughter
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Abu Sa'd also has a question similar to this. He says: My daughter's sons are in need. Is it permissible for me to give them zakah?
Answer:
No, the zakah of a father is not permissible for his son, nor is the zakah of a son permissible for his father, along the direct line of descent. The zakah of one of them is not permissible for the other, because it is obligatory for you to spend on them if they are in need. You do not give them from your zakah; you spend on them. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
