Can I give Zakat to my parents? Or grandparents?

You cannot give Zakat to your parents or grandparents if you are financially responsible for them. Zakat is intended for individuals outside your immediate family who are not dependent on you.

If your parents or grandparents are financially independent and meet the criteria of being needy, they may be eligible to receive Zakat. The key condition is that they must not be under your financial support or obligation.

Zakat is meant for those who are poor, needy, or in debt, in accordance with Shariah guidelines.
