Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is it permissible for me to give the zakah of my wealth to a Qur'an memorization circle for the sake of the teachers?
Answer:
No. Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) has specified eight categories for the distribution of zakah, and it is to be placed in those and not in associations or, I mean, charitable works. It is not to be set aside and preserved. No. Yes.
