In a conventional family structure, this duty typically falls upon the husband, encompassing the zakat obligations of his wife, children, and, if applicable, parents whom he supports. Essentially, he is accountable for the zakat of every individual for whom he bears religiously mandated financial responsibility. Even if the wife generates income, the husband remains obligated to pay her zakat al-fitr, as he holds the primary financial responsibility for her well-being.","tags":[{"_id":"668da0560b76658b4c233490","tag":"Zakat: Al-Fitr","count":13}],"createdOn":"2024-07-09T20:40:55.028Z"}
