The Ruling on Giving to One Who Claims Poverty

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : May Allah reward you with good. Some people approach those who carry zakah and claim that they are poor and in need of this zakah. Should they be given from it?

Answer : If you are convinced in your mind that the questioner is truthful, give to him. May Allah accept it, if Allah wills.
