Assisting one who cannot afford the costs of marriage from zakah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is zakah permissible for him if he is unable to bear its costs?

Answer:
Yes, indeed. A married person is assisted if he cannot get married except with help; he is helped from zakah, because he is poor, and marriage is a necessity among the necessities. So he is given what helps him with the marriage, considering his situation.

The presenter:
Yes.
