The ruling on building a hospital for the poor from zakah funds

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner asks: Is it permissible to build a hospital exclusively for poor patients from zakah funds?

Answer:
No, zakah is distributed to the poor at the time it is due; it is not held back to be used for buildings for the poor.
