Giving Zakah to a Needy Full Brother

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Is this zakah permissible to be given to a needy brother, to a needy full brother?

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that if he is poor. Zakah is for the poor, and a relative is more deserving than anyone else. A poor relative is more deserving than anyone else; it becomes both charity and maintaining family ties. Yes.
