Zakat To Projects And Institutions
May I pay zakat towards development projects and institutions?
Zakat may not be given to projects (e.g. building masjids, hospitals, schools, etc.) but rather must be given to eligible individuals, unless the project also operates as a collector and allocates the zakat funds directly to the poor.
