Question

What is the position of my Sadaqatul Fitr if I handed it to an organisation that discharged it long after the prescribed time?

Answer

By giving your Sadaqatul Fitr to an organisation you have appointed them wakeel (representative) on your behalf to discharge your Fitrah. Your fitrah will only be discharged when the organisation distributes the money.

N.B It is thus advisable that you query from the organisation as to when and how they discharge their funds.

And Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
