There is no disagreement regarding the permissibility of giving on trade goods in cash. As for giving its value in merchandise, the permits it when there is an overriding benefit, not absolutely. This is provided that it is not a ruse to give out inferior items, but rather that the zakat is given from goods of medium quality.
