*Summarized Rulings Regarding Zakaah al-Fitr*
1 *What is the ruling regarding Sadaqah al-Fitr?*
Ibn Baaz said:
Zakaah al-Fitr is mandatory upon every Muslim,
young or old, male or female, free or enslaved
(al-Fataawaa 14/197).
2 *With what is the Zakaah al-Fitr given?*
Ibn Baaz said:
A Saa’ (four handfuls) of food, dates, barely,
raisins, and cheese; and according to the most
correct opinion of the scholars, what is also
included with these types is anything that the
people nourish themselves with in their countries
like rice, maze, millet and anything similar to
these.
3 *What is the measure for Zakaah al-Fitr?*
Ibn Baaz said:
What is mandatory for this is one Saa’ from the
food of the country and its measurement is with
Kilos—approximately three Kilos
(al-Fataawaa 14-203).
4 *When is the time for giving Zakaah al-Fitr?*
Ibn Baaz said:
It is given on the days of the 28th, 29th, and
30th as well as the night of ‘Eed. It is also given
in the morning of ‘Eed before the Prayer
(al-Fataawaa 14/32-33).
5 *What is the reason for giving Zakaah al-Fitr?*
Ibn ‘Uthaymiin said:
To show gratitude for the blessings of Allaah
upon the servant regarding the breaking of the
fast of Ramadaan and its completion
(al-Fataawaa 18/257).
6 *Who is Zakaah al-Fitr given to?*
Ibn ‘Uthaymiin said:
It is not to be given except to the poor
(al-Fataawaa 18/259).
7 *What is the ruling on entrusting children or
other than them with giving Zakaah al-Fitr on a
person’s behalf?*
Ibn ‘Uthaymiin said:
It is permissible for a person to authorize his
children to give Zakaah al-Fitr on his behalf at its
time even if he is in another country at the time
for work
(al-Fataawaa 18/262).
8 *Is it permissible for the poor to authorize
someone else to take the Zakaah al-Fitr for him?
*
Ibn ‘Uthaymiin said:
It is permissible
(al-Fataawaa 18/268).
9 *Is there a specific statement that should be
made when giving Zakaah al-Fitr?*
We do not know of any specific Du’aa
(Supplication) that is said at the time of giving it
(al-Lajnah ad-Daa’imah 9/387).
10 *Is it permissible to give Zakaah al-Fitr in its
worth (in money)?*
Ibn Baaz said:
It is not permissible to give its worth (with cash)
according to the opinion of many scholars due to
its opposition to the direct statement of the
Prophet— ﺻﻠﻰ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻭ ﺳﻠﻢ —and his
companions— ﺭﺿﻲ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻨﻬﻢ
(al-Fataawaa 14/32).
Ibn ‘Uthaymiin said:
Giving it in cash will not suffice, because it has
been prescribed to be given in food
(al-Fataawaa 18/265).
11 *Is it permissible to give Zakaah al-Fitr in a
country different from the one its giver is in?*
Ibn Baaz said:
The Sunnah is to distribute it amongst the poor
in the country of the one giving it and to not
give it in cash in a different country so that he
can enrich the poor from his country and satisfy
their need
(al-Fataawaa 14/213).
12 *Where is Zakaah al-Fitr given?*
Ibn ‘Uthaymiin said:
Zakaah al-Fitr is dispensed in the land that you
are in upon breaking the fast [of Ramadaan]
even if it is far from your country.
13 *Is Zakaah al-Fitr given for a fetus?*
Ibn ‘Uthaymiin said:
It is not given on the fetus’s behalf due to it
being obligatory; rather it is given because it is
highly recommended
(al-Fataawa 18/263).
14 *Is it permissible to give Zakaah al-Fitr to
Non-Muslim workers?*
Ibn ‘Uthaymiin said:
It is not permissible to give it to other than the
poor from the Muslims
(al-Fataawaa 18/285).
15 *Is the Zakaah al-Fitr for a single person
given to just one individual or can it be dispersed
amongst several people?*
It is permissible to give the Zakaah al-Fitr for a
single person to an individual just as it
permissible to distribute it amongst a number of
people
(al-Lajnah ad-Daa’imah 9/377).
16 *What is the ruling on the one who accepts
Zakaah al-Fitr and then sells it?*
If the one who took it was deserving of it, it is
permissible for him to sell it upon receiving it
(al-Lajnah ad-Daa’imah 9/380).
17 *Delaying the giving of the Zakaah al-Fitr to
after ‘Eid without an excuse.*
Ibn ‘Uthaymiin said:
Delaying it until after the Salaah is Haraam
(impermissible) and it will not suffice
(al-Fataawaa 18/266).
May Allah accept all our Ibaadaat & sacrifices in
this Holy month. Aameen Ya Allah |
