Question #999:

Is one permitted to use sayyids’ share of the khums for a good deed like the marriage of a sayyid?

Answer #999:

The sayyids’ share of the khums, as well as that of the Imam (a.) falls under jurisdiction of the authority in charge of khums. There is no problem in using that portion relating to the sayyids’ for the mentioned cause as long as special permission has been acquired prior to its use.
