Paying the zakah of wealth to one who is unable to perform Hajj

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Is it valid to pay the zakah of wealth to a person who is unable to perform Hajj due to financial constraints, so that I give him from my zakah to enable him to perform Hajj?

Answer:
Yes, because if you give it to him, he becomes able to perform Hajj, and Hajj becomes obligatory for him. And you are doing a good deed in this. Yes.
