Ruling on Giving Zakah to a Brother for the Purpose of Marriage

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q186: The questioner, R. A., residing in Riyadh, asks: Is it permissible to give my younger brother from my zakah al-mal, in order to help him with marriage?
A186: This is a matter of scholarly disagreement. If there is no one who would block you from
inheriting, it is a matter of disagreement. In this case, if he has no children who would block you, you should help him from other than zakah; to avoid the disagreement, to get out of the disagreement.
