Q: I am very concerned regarding zakaat. I got married last year and my husband is not well settled yet. He is completing his education and spending all his money on his family as being the eldest. With my job I support him and I feel happy for that. My question is he has taken a lot of loans from many people for establishing his business. Can I offer my zakaat to him so he can undo his loans and become a little easy, as he cannot save a single coin from his salary and I've to take out Rs 30k annually. I'm only worried about his loans. Other household expense I can share, but for loans can I give him zakaat?
A: You cannot give him zakaat.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
