Zakat al-Fitr on behalf of the maid
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Peace be upon you. The next one, and the next one.
Answer:
Yes? Is the person obligated to pay it, or is her zakat due from her own wages? If the zakat is stipulated to be paid by him along with the wages, let it be. If he volunteers to pay it on her behalf with her permission, the questioner must volunteer to pay it on her behalf with the maid's permission, and there is no harm in that.
