Zakah on the money of a disabled person from the assistance

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This share is for my brother, who has an intellectual disability. He receives financial assistance from the Comprehensive Rehabilitation Center and Social Security, and I deposit it into a personal account of mine. The share is drawn from it when my father needs it. Does it require zakat if it reaches the nisab, or not?

Answer:
Zakat is obligatory on it if it reaches the nisab; it is obligatory on it. Zakat is obligatory on the money of a minor, an adult, a sick person, a healthy person, and one who is not of sound mind, because it is a right in the money. A right in the money. If it reaches the nisab and a lunar year has passed over it,
within whose wealth is a known right (25) For the petitioner and the deprived -فِي أَمْوَالِهِمْ حَقٌّ مَّعْلُومٌ لِّلسَّائِلِ وَالْمَحْرُومِ
[Al-Ma'arij 70:24-25]
, but his guardian pays it on his behalf. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you
