He gave him zakaah then the poor person gave it to him as a gift. Should he accept it?

Question: 105288

If a man gives his zakaah to one who is entitled to it, then the one who took it gives it to him as a gift, should he accept it?.

Answer

Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.

If a man gives zakaah to one who is entitled to it, then (the latter) gives it to him as a gift, there is nothing wrong with that so long as there is no prior agreement between them, but to be on the safe side he should not accept it. End quote.
