Is it permissible to give Zakat al-Fitr in the المزكي's (person giving the Zakat) original country if it is sent to family there?
There is no harm in giving Zakat in another country. However, it is better to give it in the Zakat payer's country of residence and distribute it among the poor of that country. If it is sent to relatives to distribute it among the poor, there is no harm in that.
