Where Can Collected Charity Money Be Spent? A Guide to Islamic Giving

Understanding the Scope of Charity in Islam: Where to Spend Collected Funds

Question: If someone collects money with the intention of giving charity, can they spend it on mosque construction, borewell projects, or other places, or should the collected money intended for charity be given only to the needy and poor?

Answer: Money collected with the intention of charity can be used for all kinds of religious purposes. Charity does not only mean giving to the poor; it includes all religious works. Even if needed, charity can be used to help a wealthy person.
