Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
I would like to ask the Shaykh a question. Shaykh, if one of my relatives has zakat on his wealth and I want to give it to my relatives, is it permissible for him to buy what they need?
The presenter:
Is there another question?
The questioner:
Another question: If I enter the mosque before sunset, do I pray or wait for the sun to set or for the mu'adhdhin to call to prayer?
The presenter:
I mean, you pray before sunset, meaning you wait for the prayer.
The questioner:
The greeting of the mosque, now, if you enter the mosque before the prayer.
The presenter:
May Allah welcome you. Thank you. Please, Shaykh. About paying zakah to relatives.
The Shaykh:
If they are in need, they are the most deserving of it. It is two charities for the relative: charity and maintaining family ties. Yes.
