The Collection of Zakat

Question
Does the Imam send a collector to gather Zakat al-Fitr?
Answer

I say, and with God's success: It is not recommended; because the Prophet (peace be upon him) did not send anyone, and we have in him a good example. See: Bada'i al-Sana'i 2: 74-75, and God knows best.

Relevant Fatwas

Does the Zakat al-Fitr set by the endowments at one dinar and eighty qirsh differ from the Fitr charity for the car we use, for example? I am confused, meaning that the charity of one dinar and eighty qirsh is obligatory for everyone, and it differs from the charity of the things owned by a person. What is the difference between them?
I would like to inquire about the distribution of zakat concerning the poor. Is it necessary to verify their poverty and investigate them? Are orphanages considered valid recipients of zakat? And does donating to a mosque that needs sewage extension count as a valid use of zakat?
What is the ruling on supplicating for the Prophet (peace be upon him) after the Adhan and sending blessings upon him?
What is the ruling on the prayer of one who opens (the prayer) without his imam?
A person whose salary has reached the nisab, is he obligated to pay zakat, and how does a year pass if he receives it every month?
