Paying Zakah to a hospital's charitable fund
Fatwa no. 2571
Q: Attached is a copy of the letter from King Faysal's Private Hospital including their request for support for the Charity Fund of the hospital. This fund is assigned for helping the poor and needy, who are unable to pay the costs of treatment and accommodation inside the city of Riyadh concerning patients and their attendants that come from all over the Kingdom. Is it permissible to pay Zakah (obligatory charity) to this fund? Please, advise! May Allah reward you with the best and render all our deeds sincerely for His Sake only!
A: In our view, it is not permissible to pay Zakah to this fund; since the beneficiaries stated therein are not - by way of certainty and trust - among the categories of qualified Zakah recipients stipulated in Shari`ah (Islamic law).

Q 2: Are employees whose monthly salary does not cover their needs entitled to Zakah (obligatory charity)?OF te verdelen tussen de zieke persoon en een ander behoeftige familie?
A: If the monthly salary of an employee is not enough and they do not have any other income to cover their needs, they are deserving recipients of Zakah. They should be given as much as necessary to help them pay for their lawful living expenses, as employees under such circumstances are considered needy people.

Salaam alaykoem Khattabi,
De (gedeelte van) zakat is niet voor een fonds bestemd, maar rechtstreeks tbv van de zieke persoon zelf. Er is dus geen tussenkomst van een fonds.
'Alaykum asalaam wa rahmatullahi wa barakaatuhu,
Het gaat erom of deze zieke persoon tot de geadresseerden behoort voor het recht op zakah.
Alleen het gegeven dat hij ziek is en dat het aan de behandeling van deze ziekte besteed wordt, geeft geen recht op zakah.
Kijk maar:
Q 5: Many people give Zakah (obligatory charity) to non-deserving recipients. Is it permissible for one who does not deserve Zakah to refuse taking it?
A 5: It is Haram (prohibited) to give one's Zakah to non-deserving recipients. It is also Haram for the recipient to take Zakah if they are not one of the mentioned categories in the Ayah (Qur'anic verse) in which Allah (Exalted be He) said: As-Sadaqât (here it means Zakât) are only for the Fuqarâ’ (poor), and the Masâkin (needy) and those employed to collect (the funds), and to attract the hearts of those who have been inclined (towards Islâm), and to free the captives, and for those in debt, and for Allâh’s Cause, and for the wayfarer (a traveller who is cut off from everything); a duty imposed by Allâh. And Allâh is All-Knower, All-Wise. [9:60]
May peace and blessings of Allah be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family and his Companions!
