Half of the Khums is called Sahm Sadat (The share of needy Sadat). It must be given to needy Sadat who are following Ahlul Bayt (AS) and practicing religious rules. The other half of Khums is called Sahm Imam ( The share of Imam) must be given to the Marje' of Taqleed or his authorised deputies or according to his permission.
You can can send it to the office of Marje' Taqleed in Lebanon or any other authorised deputy who will make it reach to the deserving families in Palestine and Lebanon.
