syed and sadqa

[zahra kazmi]

Hope you all are fine.

I wanted to know if a syed can give his sadqa to another syed or not ? I am following Syed Ali Hussaini alSistani. Thanks everyone

Question: Is it permissible for a "Sayyid" to have Sadaqa for their needs? If it is permissible, then please specify the condition.

Answer: It is permissible for a Hashimi to give his sadaqa to another Hashimi or to a non-Hashimi. This includes both Zakat of property and zakat of Fitra. But it is not permissible for a non-Hashimi to give his Sadaqa to a Hashimi. If a Hashimi receives Zakat of property or fitra from a non-Hashimi, it would be forbidden for him to use it, and he who gives it (zakat), his "Zimma" (obligation) would not be discharged. In cases other than those mentioned above it is permissible for a non-Hashimi to give his Sadaqa, atonement, or Fidya of fast ( kaffara) or any desirable charity to a Hashimi. Yes, if charity given to a Hashimi is too little an amount of property and it is given with the intention of repulsing calamity and evil, there is Ishkaal (objection) in its being permissible.

 

 So to answer your question yes a syed can give his sadqa to another syed but a non syed can't give his sadqa to syed.

Salamun alaykum.

2 types of Sadaqa must be distinguished: obligatory and recommended.

* Obligatory Sadaqa is Zakat (including Zakat al-Fitrah at the end of the holy month of Ramadan). Non-Sayyids can not give this obligatory Sadaqa to Sayyids. However, Sayyids are permitted to give it to Sayyids.

* Recommended Sadaqa (like general charities) can be given by all people to all people including Sayyids.

Salamum Alaykum;

I am non-syed Shia, and some of relatives are Syed Shia.  In Ramdhan my mother offer sadqa or charity for our dead relatives to non-syed shia family.  Now I am trying to continue this practice, my question is: Can I offer this charity of my Syed Shia relatives who are needy, noble and I know will not ask anyone for help.

Please advice

Husayn
