Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: It was mentioned to us that the mukatabin are among the recipients of zakah, and they are slaves.
Answer:
Yes, yes, hmm? He says: It was mentioned to us that the mukatabin are among the recipients of zakah, and they are slaves, but then it was stated here that zakah is not paid to slaves. How do you reconcile that? Yes, it was mentioned to us that the mukatabin are among the recipients of zakah, and they are slaves? Allah said, “And for the necks,” so He made the mukatabin one of the categories of zakah recipients. Yes.
