Is it permissible to give Zakat al-Fitr in the form of pasta and rice together, valued at EGP 15 (which represents 2.5 kilograms of wheat at a price of EGP 6 per kilogram)?

The obligation for Zakat al-Fitr is to give a Sa' of food, and it is not permissible to give its monetary value. The amount of a Sa' is what the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, specified, regardless of the differing values of the types of food, which emphasizes that the consideration is the Sa' itself, not its value. It is permissible to give pasta as Zakat al-Fitr if it is a staple food for people, but it is better and more cautious to give the types of food that the predecessors used to give, such as rice and wheat. It is not permissible to give Zakat al-Fitr with a Sa' composed of two different types of food; rather, the Sa' must be of a single type.
