Mother giving zakaat to her daughter
Question
Can my baligh daughter who is not married and is supported by me as I'm divorced and not working, be a recipient of zakat from my savings which are the only means of survival for myself and hers. Can I pay zakat to her for her university if I am to pay?
Answer
No.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
