Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible to give zakah or sadaqah to a female servant?
Answer:
If she is poor and you know her situation, there is nothing wrong with giving her from the zakah. However, the precaution is that her salary should be sufficient for her, and you should give to people whose situation and poverty you know, supporting them and doing them good.
As for the female servant, the matter may differ; you may not know her situation as it should be known, and perhaps her salary is sufficient for her. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.
