The ruling on diverting money allocated for one poor woman to another poor woman

Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence the Shaykh. A poor woman requested assistance from a charitable person, and he gave her four hundred riyals per month. I pay her that amount every month. In one of the months, she did not come to collect the money, and another poor woman came complaining that she was in need and wanted this money. So I gave her the four hundred. Then, in the following month, the regular recipient came, and I gave her the amount without asking about the month that had passed. Please advise us in this matter. May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
If the owner of the money gave it to you specifically for this woman, it belongs to her, and you must not give it to anyone else. If you give it to someone else, you are liable to pay it to her, because the donor wants this specific woman. You are merely an intermediary and a trustee; you do not act on your own authority. If you want to give to the second woman, give her from your own money, which is yours. Do not give her the right of the first woman. Her family must be compensated for this amount unless she has permitted it. Yes.
