Question: If a guest comes after sunset on the night of Eid al-Fitr, is it obligatory on the host? And what if it comes after Maghrib? Answer: The Zakat al-Fitrah of a guest who enters the host’s house after sunset on the night of Eid al-Fitr, if he is not considered the host’s dependant, is not obligatory on the host. And if the guest is considered the host’s dependant, based on obligatory precaution they must observe caution meaning one of the two pays the guest’s Zakat al-Fitrah with the permission of the other. The ruling of the guest entering after Maghrib is the same as that of a guest entering after sunset.
