The ruling on digging a well with zakah funds
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Likewise, may Allah preserve you, he asks about digging a well with zakah funds?
Answer:
Likewise, what is dug with it is a well. And the well is not exclusive to the poor; the rich and the poor drink from it. It is not specific to them, so do not allocate it for a well. The one who volunteers from his own wealth digs the well, praise be to Allah.
