The Shaykh : Now, who are the categories among these eight who are given zakah by way of ownership? Because they are of two types: a type that is given by way of ownership, and a type that is given by way of allocation.
The questioner : The poor and the needy, and those employed to collect it, and those whose hearts are to be reconciled, because the letter "lam" (indicating possession) came with "the poor." As for the slaves to be freed, the debtors, and in the cause of Allah, and the wayfarer, they do not own it. As for the slaves to be freed and the debtors, they do not own it.
The Shaykh : Likewise, in the cause of Allah and the wayfarer are by way of allocation. Now, be patient.
