We presented this question to the Shaykh Allaamah Ubaid ibn Abdillaah Al-Jabiri on 25/11/2002.
Those who have been confined in prison, do they have to pay Zakaat ul Fitr? |
| The Shaykh responded:
The one who is imprisoned, then if he is Mukallaf someone of sound intellect and has reached puberty, then verily Zakaatul fitr is obligatory upon him even if he is confined (in prison). Because this Zakaat is upon the heads, upon their necks, each muslims (responsibilty) of Zakaat is upon himself. But if the one who is confined, his family like his wife, son or father was to arise (with this task) for him with his permission then there is nothing wrong with this. |

Shaykh Ubayd al-Jaabiree answers: Does the prisoner have to pay Zakaatul Fitr? |
| Hudhayfah ibn al-Yamaan radiallaahu 'anhu said. "The people used to ask the Messenger of Allaah sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam about the good, but I used to ask him about the evil for fear that it would overtake me ..."
