Giving to beggars at traffic signals
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner asks: Is it obligatory to give to the beggar who is found at the traffic signals, such as children and others?
Answer:
This is like any other beggar. If he is not among those in dire necessity, or if this has become a bad appearance, then the state has the right to prevent it, because it has now become a bad appearance at the signal. Women are begging at the signals, and there is danger, so the state has the right to prevent this. Yes.
