It is not permissible to spend Zakah to establish the center referred to or other projects, because the categories of Zakah recipients are specified in the noble Qur'anic verse, i.e., the Words of Allah (Glorified be He) Who says:
As-Sadaqât (here it means Zakât) are only for the Fuqarâ’ (poor), and the Masâkin (needy)
to the end of the verse. However, it is permissible to finance this project from the donations of benevolent people.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
