Q:
I live in a non-Muslim country, how should I pay my Zakah (obligatory charity) here?
Should I send it to a Muslim country? Note that I have sent some to the Islamic Centre in
Washington.
A:
If the country where the money exists does not include any of the qualified Zakah recipients, you should send it to anyone who is entitled to receive it, anywhere; either in Muslim countries or to other poor Muslim minorities.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
