It is permissible to give the meat of a vowed sacrifice to a needy nephew to help him organize his wedding party without extravagance, because one who is in need of marriage expenses is considered eligible for . An absolute vow (whose beneficiary has not been specified) is to be given to those eligible for zakat, such as the poor, the needy, and the like. This includes six categories: the poor, the needy, those in bondage, those in debt, those in the cause of Allah, and the wayfarer.
