Paying Zakah to the project of helping the youth get married


428

A: It is compulsory to pay the Zakah to the legal beneficiaries immediately at the time when the Zakah becomes due. It is not permissible to delay the payment unless with a legal excuse. The payment of Zakah to the charitable institutions may delay its payment to the legal beneficiaries beyond the due time. Some institutions may spend the Zakah funds in channels that are not legally assigned to Zakah. So, it is obligatory on the payers of Zakah to give it directly by himself or through his trustworthy deputy to the legal recipients.May Allah grant us success. May Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family and his Companions!
