What are the legitimate recipients of Zakat, and is it permissible to add Zakat funds to a vow to increase its amount?

It is not permissible to add to a vow in order to inflate it, for Zakat is one thing and a vow is another, and it is not permissible to mix them. However, there is no harm in spending Zakat on the recipient of a vow if it is among those permissible recipients of Zakat.
