Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

(Fatwa: 1024/1024/M=1434) If you give him zakah considering him eligible to receive zakah then your zakah was paid. It is not necessary to pay it again. دفع بتحر لمن ظنه مصرفاً ...... إن بان غناه أو كونه ذمقياً أو أنه أبوه أو ابنه أو امراته أو هاشمي لا يعيد (درمختار)
