Question
The Musjid trustees took from the Lillah funds a sum to buy grocery parcels for the poor. Their intention is to give these food hampers as Zakaat using the Lillah funds. They will replace the Lillah when later they get Zakaat contributions. Will the Zakaat be discharged in this manner.
Answer
Zakaat will not be discharged. No Zakaat payer had instructed them to give Zakaat on his behalf.
