Question:
Please, Ibrahim, from the Noble Makkah. Hello, peace be upon you. And upon you be peace. First, the Sunnah. How are you, my Shaykh? I have three questions. Please. The first question: Is it permissible for me to take zakah from my brothers? Fine, it is permissible.

Answer:
If you are poor and in need. No. There is no harm in taking zakah from your brothers if you are in need and poor. Yes.
