It has to be given to trustworthy Islamic relief organizations that know how to distribute zakat money.

Is it allowed to give zakaat to an islamic non-profit organization that helps muslims in Myanmar? (The rohingya).

If a person is having a saving amount e.g “A” which reached to nisaab and had passed 1 year on it, means Zakaah becomes compulsory on it. And that person is having a loan (.e.g. “B” amount)on him which he is paying monthly to Islamic Bank. So how the Zakaah is calculated. Also if loan minus saving (i.e. B-A) exceeds the saving amount then what about Zakaah on it ? Please clarify

I have a questiom regarding zakat. I have heard that zakat can only be given to muslims and that you should not five zakaat to non muslims. Also, that zakat cannot be given to charitable organisations. Is this true?
