International trade and other sales : land dispute and giving Zakah for emergency travel

السؤال

Dearest Dr. Monzer, As-Salam `Alaykum, Could you kindly reply to the following two Fatwas ? 1. Property dispute : 24 years ago my husband purchased a land and constructed it with his money (without my father in law and brothers in law money being involved). When we came to Saudi Arabia 24 years ago, my father in law had the documents of the land. Since then my father in law and my 2 brothers in law with their families have been living in my husband’s house. In between my husband had asked for the documents but my father in law refused to give. My husband financially helped his father and took his responsibilities sincerely. Our problems started when my father in law passed away 3 years ago. Before his death he manipulated the documents without our knowledge and gave half of the property to my youngest brother in law. Now my brother in law claims my husband’s property. Kindly tell me what all crimes were committed and guide me in the light of Hadiths and Qur’an. Thank you 2. Zakah for Emergency Travel : As-Salam `Alaykum, My friend's mother had died in a tragic accident in another country when she went on a holiday. His father and siblings had rushed to that country. However, he could not go there since he didn't have enough money to travel. One brother helped him with some money from his Zakah since he wanted badly to be with the family and to see his mother's grave (Qabr) and say Salam to her personally. Is he eligible for Zakah under 'ibn sabeel' category ? I have seen a fatwa in the following link defining ibnsabeel : http://www.islamqa.com/en/ref/35889. Is it permissible to pay Zakah for a person in this situation ? Jazakum Allah Khairan.
