Question:
His final question says: May Allah bless you, is it permissible for me to give zakah to my needy son?

Answer:
No, if he is in need and you are able to provide for him, it is obligatory for you to provide for him from your wealth, and you do not give zakah to thereby protect your wealth. Yes.
