The Ruling on Giving Zakah to Children

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A man who has zakah to pay asks: Should I give the zakah preferentially to the children? No, no.

Answer:
He gives it to the poor. Among the children there are the rich and the poor; he gives it to the poor, not to the children.
