ANSWER:

This is not permissible.

I have helped a relative by paying the fees for his sponsorship (‘Iqama’), but at the time of payment, I didn’t mentioned that this is a loan or charity. Can I leave this amount as part of my Zakat, without telling him any about it ? ( at the time of paying I was thinking it will be returned )

Early this year,I had given some money to my brother to help him at his business, with an intention to receive back as per his promise.Later I was due to pay zakat.Unfortunately I didn’t have enough money to pay my zakat and my gold was at the locker back in my home town.So I decided to forgive the debt of my brother,money equivalent to zakat.Is my zakat accepted?
