The Ruling on Giving Zakat to the Mother and Brothers
What is the ruling on giving zakat to the mother and brothers if they are in need of money?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: It is recommended to give it to them for the sake of brotherhood, not for the mother; because her maintenance is obligatory on the sons, and God knows best.
