To whom is zakat al-fitr given?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: We are residents outside Makkah. To whom do we give our zakat al-fitr?

Answer:
You have the choice to give it in your country to the poor in your country, or to give it to the poor in Makkah. There is no harm in either; it is all permissible, if Allah wills.
