Is it permissible to give a poor person from the zakah what he needs to get married?

Question : This person is asking, saying: Is it permissible to give from the zakah to someone who needs to get married?

Answer : And the answer is yes. If a person cannot afford the mahr, we give him what is sufficient for him to get married, because marriage is among the most important and most emphasized matters. So if this man has what is sufficient for his livelihood in his clothing, food, drink, and shelter, and he needs to get married but does not have what to get married with, we give him from the zakah what is sufficient for him as a mahr. So if the mahr that is sufficient for him is ten thousand, how much do we give him? How much do we give him? Ten thousand. And if what is sufficient for him is five thousand, five thousand. And if what is sufficient for him is fifteen thousand, fifteen thousand. That is, whatever is sufficient for him, whether little or much. Yes. The poor person is among the poor.
