Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: A person gave me zakah to distribute to the poor. Is it permissible for me to give some of it to my wife and my children?
Answer:
No, you may not give it to yourself or to anyone whose maintenance is your obligation, because you are the agent, and an agent does not take anything for himself.
