| Aug 16, 2012 at 16:54 | comment | added | Yehuda | @Dan I am asking the more basic question, but in the case of the Rambam he knows he is giving it to an Ani, just not whom. Therefore he gives it straight into the reshus of an Ani. Here however, it is just going into his Tzedaka pile and at the moment is in the Reshus of whom? | |
| Aug 16, 2012 at 15:01 | comment | added | rosends | more of a request for clarification -- I suspect that there is something more intended by the question. Based on an earlier question by Yehuda, it seems that his concern is about mentally dedicating money to the idea of charity without apportioning it physically to anyone. If I have a $5 in my wallet and think "I should give that away" does it have the status of tzeddakah even before I am aware of any place/person to give it to. Or maybe he is asking the more basic question. i don't know. | |

| Aug 16, 2012 at 14:43 | comment | added | rosends | wouldn't that be a rabbi's discretionary fund? You donate, he decides. 2 of the rambam's 8 levels of charity include where the giver does not know who receives the money so he couldn't have anyone in mind. | |
