Wa alaikum salam wa rehmatAllah,

This is not permissible. Zakat should be given to poor and needy and not to help sinners who deal in RIBA.

My husband has started a business by taking up loan to purchase new machines n he is physically wounded with his half foot amputed due to excess of smoking . I was against the loan but without my knowledge he went for loan n purchased the new machines he has to pay heavy interest on that loan . Can I give my zakat to him to clear td loan as it he i is also earning n paying the interest monthly .? Or should I give to some other needy relative ? Pls guide me .

Riba, Zakat |
