Giving the suspended daughter from the zakah of wealth

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: I have a daughter who is suspended (m'allaqah) by her husband, and she has four children. He asks: Is it permissible for me to give her from my zakah and spend on her from my zakah?

Answer:
No, the zakah of a father is not permissible for his child, the zakah of a father is not permissible for his child. You can go to the court, and the court will handle this husband; they will obligate him to provide maintenance. If he is present, he will take care of her, and if he is absent, he will send the maintenance to the wife. Yes.
