The preponderant opinion is that Zakat al-Fitr is obligatory upon servants and drivers themselves, due to the saying of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him: "The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, obligated Zakat al-Fitr: a sa' of dates or a sa' of barley, upon males and females."
