Recipients of Sadaqah

Sep 30, 2023 | Charity

QUESTION:

Can Sadaqah be given to non-Muslims as well, or is it only allowed to be discharged to Muslims?

ANSWER:

Nafl Sadaqah can be given to both Muslims and non-Muslims. Waajib Sadaqah can only be given to poor Muslims who are eligible to receive Zakaat. Zakaat, Sadaqatul Fitr, taking a vow to discharge a fixed amount in charity if a need is fulfilled, and the need is thereafter fulfilled, etc. fall in the category of Waajib Sadaqah.

ALLAH TA’ALA ALONE IN HIS INFINITE KNOWLEDGE KNOWS BEST!
