A man paid the alms given at the end of Ramadan on behalf of his wife’s sister and her son, so she gave that man the value of what he had paid.

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A man paid the alms given at the end of Ramadan for himself and his family, and then he also paid it on behalf of his wife’s sister and her son, knowing that the wife’s sister was able to pay her own alms. So I told her, “You should pay it yourself.” She then gave that man the value of what he had paid on her behalf and on behalf of her son. Is this sufficient?

Answer:
No, as long as he paid it on her behalf with her permission, he paid it on her behalf with her permission, and the matter is concluded and the objective has been achieved. There is no need for this talk. And it is permissible, praise be to Allah, for one to act as a representative or be entrusted with this. The entrustment has taken place and been executed. There is no need for this talk. Yes.
