Clarification that the statement: "And for freeing captives, and for those in debt, and in the cause of Allah, and for the traveler" means that these people are given from the zakah, not in the form of ownership.

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Then Allah (Mighty and Majestic) said:
and for freeing captives [or slaves] and for those in debt and for the cause of Allah and for the [stranded] traveler وفي الرقاب والغارمين وفي سبيل الله وابن السبيل
[At-Tawbah 9:60]
These four categories have their entitlement indicated by the preposition. The scholars said that this is because these people do not own what is given to them; they do not own what is given to them, unlike the four previous categories.
