Question
There are orphans who cannot pay their Zakat, is it permissible for me to pay it on their behalf or is it only allowed from their personal funds?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: Zakat al-Fitr is not obligatory except for those who own one hundred grams of gold, and the like are not required to pay Zakat al-Fitr, but it should be given to them as Zakat al-Fitr, and God knows best.
