Ruling on Giving Zakah to Dhimmi Non-Muslims

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Is it valid to give zakah to a dhimmi (a non-Muslim under Muslim protection)?
Answer: According to the majority of scholars, zakah is not given to disbelieving dhimmis, and this is the correct position. Zakah is a means of supporting Muslims and addressing their needs and poverty, so it must be distributed among Muslims to meet their needs and alleviate their poverty. Yes.
