To Whom Zakat Al-Fitr Is Paid?
Respected scholars, as-salamu `alaykum. Can Zakat Al-Fitr be paid for other than the poor and the needy?another question is: Do you consider the low-income families in North America as compatible to the definition of faqir and miskin in Islamic Shari`ah? I mean, if a family can live, eat, and drink but with very limited resources, will it be eligible for Zakah? Jazakum Allahu khayran.
