Is it permissible to give zakat to a poor young man who is married and has children, but is idle regarding work? And is it possible to buy necessities for his children from zakat money? And how is the zakat nisab calculated based on the price of gold: is the purchase price or sale price adopted, and is it the price of the home country or the country of residence? And how is zakat to be disbursed if the nisab has been reached but a full year has not passed on the entire amount?

It is not permissible to give zakat to a poor person who is able to earn a living. This is the fatwa we adopt, contrary to the Hanafis and Malikis. If a person is poor and needy, and unable to earn a living, it is permissible to give him zakat. The nisab for cash is estimated at the value of 85 grams of pure gold or 595 grams of pure silver. Zakat becomes obligatory on it if a full year has passed, and its amount is 2.5%. As for zakat on cash that is not profits and on which a year has not passed, it is to be paid when its year becomes due, even if it is less than the nisab. Zakat is disbursed in the country where the wealth is located, not in the country where the zakat payer resides.
