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?.

Praise be to Allaah.

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.

Majmoo’ Fataawa Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (18/472).
