Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: Is it better to give the zakah to one person or to distribute it among several people?

Answer:
We say this depends on the need. If the person needs it all, give it to him. But if he only needs part of it, give him what he needs and give the rest to others. Yes.
