Paying Zakat for Orphans
Is it permissible to pay Zakat al-Fitr for orphans to build a wall around their house for their protection, knowing that they do not possess the nisab of zakat?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: It is permissible to give it to orphans in any way that is possible, and we do for them after their permission even if it involves building a wall, and God knows best.
