To whom Paying Zakat of Fitra is Obligatory

Issue No. 1692- At the time of sunset during the night of Eid al-Fitr (i.e., the night preceding Eid day), it is obligatory on whoever is sane, needless and mature to give zakāt of fiṭrah to a deserving person, on his own behalf as well as on behalf of those whose maintenance is obligatory on him. Zakāt of fiṭrah per person is about three kilos (one ṣā‘) of food which is common in his area, such as wheat, barley, date, rice, corn, etc. It is also sufficient if he pays the price of one of these items.
