The Recipients of Zakat
“The Sadaqat (prescribed alms) are (meant) only to be given to the poor,
the needy, to those employed to collect them, to those whose hearts are to
be won, in the cause of the slaves and those encumbered with debt, in the
way of Allah and to a wayfarer. This is an obligation prescribed by Allah.
Allah is All-Knowing, Wise.” – Surah Tawbah: 60
