Consuming alcohol

Q: I have been reading a few things regarding alcohol and the Islamic views on it for a lesson I care for. I have some questions about it.

1. If someone consumes alcohol and then leaves it and repents will Allah forgive him.

2. Is there any rule that is someone consumes alcohol he cannot perform namaaz and touch or recite quran for 40 days as alcohol stays in the body for 40 days.

3. What are some of the ways one can repent about the sin of consuming alcohol?

Assisting someone who has no income with zakaat

Q: My father's sister who is above 60 years is a diabetic patient and has no kids to support her. Her husband died last year as well so she is alone by her own because her brothers and sisters have already died. We support her financially from Zakat money because she had no source of income at all. After her husband died, she got some money which her husband had saved in the bank and that money is equivalent to US$7,000.00. Can we still continue supporting her from Zakaat money as she still does no have any source of income? Please advise.
