The answer

al-Fitr is obligatory for an individual on behalf of themselves and those whose maintenance is their responsibility, provided they possess more than what suffices them and their dependents for the day and night of Eid. The Hanbalis made it obligatory for whoever undertook the sustenance of a person throughout . Therefore, Zakat al-Fitr is not obligatory for a guest unless they are among those whose maintenance is the host's responsibility, or if the host, according to the Hanbalis, undertook their sustenance throughout the month.
