The Imam (as) replied: "As for the share of Allah (swt), it is for the Messenger to spend in the way of Allah (swt).

The orphans are the orphans of his household, so these four shares are allocated to them. As for the needy and the travelers, you know that we do not eat from charity, nor is it permissible for us. Thus, it is for the needy and the travelers outside our family."
