1819: 10364. 'Alayhi (Upon him): 1: Sahih (authentic). Muttafaqun 'alayhi (agreed upon). Narrated by al-Bukhari (2/153, 6/40), Muslim in (Al-Zakat, H/102), Abu Dawud (H/1631, 1632), al-Nasa'i (5/85), Ahmad (2/260, 395), al-Bayhaqi (4/195, 7/11), al-Humaydi (1059), Ithaf (4/172), 'Abd al-Razzaq (20027), al-Manthur (1/358, 6/114), al-Kanz (16553), al-Tabari (10/111, 26/125), al-Qurtubi (3/342), and Ibn Kathir (1/479, 480).

1820: 10374. Wa al-masakin (And the needy): 1: Al-Qurtubi said in the interpretation of this verse: It clarifies the recipients of Zakat and the charities so that they do not go to others. Then the choice of who distributes them is a matter held by Malik and Abu Hanifa and their associates. It is like saying: The saddle is for the animal and the door is for the house. Al-Shafi'i said: The 'lam' is the 'lam' of ownership, as you say: 'The wealth is for Zayd, 'Amr, and Bakr,' so there must be equality among those mentioned.

1821: 10374. Al-thaman (The payment): 1: Ibn Kathir said: As for those employed to collect them, they are the tax collectors and agents who deserve a share for that. It is not permissible for them to be from the relatives of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace.
