Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Regarding the People of the House, is it true that it is not permissible to give them zakah?
Answer:
Yes, it is not lawful for the People of the House. It is not lawful for Muhammad or for the family of Muhammad. It is the filth of people, so zakah is not lawful for the family of the House. However, they are given from the public treasury, from the treasury of the Muslims, what is sufficient for them.
