Giving Zakat In Taxes When Non-Muslims Are Not Included In Masarif-e-Zakat
The heads of zakat are poor, needy, and travellers etc and Quran doesn’t specify their faith. It is therefore generic. So we keep it general. If zakat were not for non Muslims it should have been mentioned. We can apply no specification on our own. In principle, specification is needed to be mentioned otherwise the expression is taken as general.
