Zakat-ul-Fitr should Reach the Intended before the Eid Prayer is Established - Abu Muhammad al-Maghribee

Here is a very important point of benefit that Ustadh Abu Muhammad al-Maghribee (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) brings in his lecture titled: Rulings & Regulations Regarding Zakat-ul-Fitr

There actually 2 points.  

Firstly, Zakat-ul-Fitr has to be given as foodstuff 

Secondly, it has to be distributed by yourself or the trustworthy individual or organisation that you have chosen to appoint, prior to the establishment of the Eid salah.  

It CANNOT be given after the Eid salah has been established to the imam of the masjid for it to be distributed on your behalf.
Abu Hurairah (رضي الله عنه) narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever invites to guidance will be rewarded like those who follow him in the guidance are rewarded, and that will not decrease the reward of those who have followed him." [Collected by Imām Muslim
