One’s next of kin have the greatest right to one’s charity
1993 1-2 January-February 23 One’s next of kin have the greatest right to one’s charity (61) Abu Hurayrah records the Prophet as saying: “By the one who sent me with the Truth, God will not accept charity from one whose kinsfolk go in want because he spends on others instead of on them.” According to another account, the Prophet said that God would not look with favour upon such a person on the Day of Resurrection.
