The father giving his son from the zakah for marriage

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I say, Honorable Shaykh (may Allah preserve you), is it permissible for a father to give his son from the zakah to help him with marriage?

Answer:
No, a father does not give his son from the zakah, neither as a reward for him, but rather if the son is poor and cannot afford to marry, and the father is wealthy, it is obligatory for the father to marry him. It is obligatory for the father to marry him. As for if he is... he can... he is able... medicine... he imitates...
