Is zakah to be given to poor Quran memorization teachers?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Is it permissible for me to give zakah to my Quran memorization teachers if they are poor?

Answer:
If you give it to them for the sake of teaching, that is not permissible. If you give it to them because of their poverty, there is nothing wrong with that. Yes.
