Q: My youger brother who is jobless and they have newborn baby. Currently, he has no income. Can we give him bulk of zakaat so he can fulfill the needs of his wife and baby? Few months ago we gave him zakaat for the amount equivalent to US$1000 which he deposited in his bank account. Can we give me more money from zakaat so he can manage the needs of his wife and baby?
A: After deducting his debts and liabilities if he does not possess wealth or his wealth is less than the nisaab amount, then you can assist him with zakaat.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
