No you cannot. Give it directly to the poor and needy in cash.

Can we pay zakat money for water related issues. Like putting a pipeline in the house etc

shall spending money to donate an alluminium dead body carrier in a local mosque be considered as giving zakat (believing it as giving to fi sabilillah,a category of zakat fund)?

Is it true? Wealth that is being saved to get married, to build a home or for other purposes is subject to zakaah if it reaches the nisaab and one full year has passed, whether it is gold, silver or cash, because of the general meaning of the evidence which indicates that zakaah is obligatory on that which reaches the nisaab and one full year has passed, with no exceptions.
