Miscellaneous in Zakah distribution : should Zakah be given only to Muslims ?
Fatawa Question
Assalamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh, Is it compulsory for me to pay zakat though I am not working (housewife only). Once in a while I do deposit some cash in charity boxes in malls and other places. Also please tell me if we can give money to beggars on streets whether 'Muslim' or 'non-Muslim'. And should Zakat be given only to Muslims ? and if we help family members financially can in huge amount can we consider that as Zakat? Jazakum Allahu Khairan for your constant help
