Is it permissible to give zakah to a married sister who is in need?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Yes, may Allah bless you and reward you. This is a question from one of the sisters, asking: Is it permissible for me to give my married sister from my zakah, and she is in need?

Answer:
I give to her husband who provides for her, so I give to the husband. And if you give to your sister to meet her personal needs, that is a good thing and maintaining family ties. Yes.
