Zakat To One’s Dependant Family Members
May I pay zakat to my dependant family members?
Members of one’s dependant family and relatives (or one’s spouse’s dependant family and relatives) may not receive zakat, since these individuals are already obliged to receive one’s support (assuming the necessary conditions exist), including one’s spouse, parent, grandparent, great grandparent, and their direct ascendants; and child, grandchild, great grandchild and their direct descendants.
