Question:
Honorable Shaykh, the questioner says: In the verse on zakah, the phrase "and the workers on it" is conjoined with "the poor," so here it is for ownership.
Answer:
No, we do not give it to them as ownership, because they take it in exchange for their work. If it is counted as work, they take it; if it is not counted as work, they do not take it.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you
