Question:
May Allah reward you and reward you with good. This person, may Allah protect you, says that he wants to travel at the beginning of the ten days. Regarding the alms given at the end of Ramadan and voluntary charity, he wants to hand it over to one of his two brothers so that he can pay it to the poor on the twenty-seventh day or at the end of the month.
Answer:
Yes, this is permissible. It is permissible for the one from whom the alms given at the end of Ramadan is due to appoint an agent to pay it out at its time, before the festival prayer, on the night of the festival, or before the festival prayer, and this is better. It is also permissible to give it out one or two days before the festival, either by himself or by appointing an agent to pay it out at the time it is due. Yes.
