Is it permissible to lend the Zakaah of money to someone who needs a part of it and, upon paying it back, it will be given out as Zakaah on money?

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, is His slave and messenger.

When Zakah becomes due on someone, he should hasten to pay it at once. It is not permissible for him to delay its payment without a valid reason. Hence, lending the money of Zakah is impermissible since it results in it being withheld from those entitled to receive it.
