Who are the relatives to whom it is not permissible to give zakah?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Zakah to relatives, O Shaykh?

Answer:
Zakah to relatives is good, provided they are not in your direct line of descent. We say "direct line of descent" because it is obligatory for him to provide for them if they are in need, and he must not use zakah as a means of protecting his wealth. Yes.
