As Salaamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh,

We hope this answer reaches you in good health and Islamic spirit.

Based on your specific question and information provided.

From the Jurisprudence Perspective: It is Mubah ( Ruling is Neutral / Optional / at your discretion).

We suggest, you use other sources to finance this gift of Ziyarat.

Kindly note: Obligatory Zakat can not be given to a Hashmi / Sayyid.
