Giving zakah for the treatment of a sister's daughter

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: My sister's daughter needs a surgical operation, and her father is able to afford the costs of living, but he does not have the amount for this operation except by borrowing. His question is: Is it valid for me to give them from my zakah?

Answer:
Yes, if her guardian is poor and she is poor and in need of treatment. Give her from your zakah. Yes.
