Giving Zakah to a Son Who Needs It for Marriage

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
We return to our callers. A call from our brother Hasan from Jazan. May Allah keep you safe. Peace be upon you. Peace and the mercy of Allah.

The Shaykh:
Expand.

The questioner:
If a man has zakah and his son wants to get married but has nothing, is it permissible for him to give it to him or not?

The presenter:
Is there another question?

The questioner:
No, no.

The presenter:
Thank you, O Hasan. Yes, yes, O Shaykh.

The Shaykh:
My brother, the zakah of a father is not permissible for his son, nor the reverse. So he gives him from other than the zakah, helping him with the marriage from other than the zakah. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
