The Shias who have beliefs of kufr such as Hadhrat Jibrael (علیہ السلام) mistook in delivering Wahi (نعوذ بالله), which was sent to Hadhrat Ali رضى الله تعالى عنه. Or all the Sahaba after the death of holy Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم turned apostate except a few, العياذ بالله Or that Hadhrat Ayisha رضى الله تعالى عنها committed adultery or they consider their Imams as infallible etc. Those who hold such beliefs are Kafir and apostate. It is not lawful to give them Zakah.
