Intending Zakat While Ostensibly Making Loan
Is it valid to intend paying zakat while ostensibly making a loan?
It is permissible for a zakat payer to intend to pay zakat while ostensibly making a loan, and thereby fulfill his zakat obligation, provided the recipient is eligible to receive zakat and that if the recipient returns to repay the money, the zakat payer must refuse to accept the repayment by waiving the ostensive loan obligation.
