Asak I belong to a sadaat family from father side . But my mother is non sadaat. . Now wen i pay khums after giving imaam huq. And.rest of money where should i pay. . In my eyes there is no sadaat.but there are many relatives who deserve it from mother side. . In this case can i give half money to non sadaat. who are my relatives from motherside. .

Half of the Khums is for needy Sadaat, and other half is the share of the

Imam (AS) To your non Sadat poor relatives.
