Paying zakah to one who deliberately abandons prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We received some questions from the questioner, A. He says: Is it permissible for me to give to a person who abandons prayer and is negligent about it?
Answer:
If he abandons prayer and does not pray deliberately, he is not a Muslim, and it is not permissible to pay zakah to him; because zakah is only paid to a Muslim. Yes.
