Is it permissible to give a portion of the monthly financial vow to relatives as a form of feeding the poor, and to spend the remainder on the poor and needy, knowing that the vow did not specify a particular recipient?
As long as you did not specify a recipient for your vow, then it must be spent on the poor and the needy. Therefore, it is not permissible for you to spend any of it on an invitation you hold for those who are not poor or needy.
