Giving Zakah to friends and relatives : giving Zakah money to flat-mate
Fatawa Question
Assalamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh, My flat-mate became Muslim 2 years ago. She is returning to her country Portugal very soon and needs to ship her things to Portugal. At the moment she is in difficult financial circumstances. She has no money to send her things, she currently has no income and even though she has some support from her family, who are not Muslim, it is not enough. At the moment she is asking people for help to ship her things, to help her pay her airfare and for some money to sustain her for at least 6 months, while she looks for a job. I have been given Zakah money to give to whoever needs it. I would like to know if I can giver her the money or not ? Jazakallah Khairan for your help
