Q 2:
I gave a person a sum of money in order to pay it as Zakah (obligatory charity). I asked him to search for those who deserve receiving Zakah in the village.
When I met him two days later, he told me that he gave this sum of money to a project called Sanabil Al-Khayr (the spikes of goodness) for those who are needy among the poor Muslims in the world at Al-Rajhy Bank. Is this manner of paying Zakah valid? (Part No. 9; Page No. 410) I had asked him to search for people who deserve receiving Zakah from the inhabitants of the village, but he did not and instead acted this way.
A:
It is not permissible for a deputy to act in contradiction to the instructions of the principal. If he contradicts the instructions or will of his client, then the deputy will bear the responsibility of his decisions and will become accountable to the principal.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
