ويجوز دفعها إلى من يملك أقل من ذلك وإن كان صحيحا مكتسبا
Translation: Zakat may be given to someone who owns less than the nisab, even if healthy and earning.
Physical fitness and ability to work do not, by themselves, remove eligibility under this statement. The person’s actual financial position remains central.
An employed but needy person may qualify; the ordinary other conditions also remain applicable.
