This page is the complete Zakat guide for Greece, and is paid, in practice, in EUR, at local prices, through local channels. This page translates the universal rules into that local reality: the way Zakat is commonly paid in Greece, a worked example, and the dates and timetable links you need for Ramadan 2027. Everything is free, and the calculators linked from this page run in your browser with live prices, converting the thresholds into EUR on the day you actually calculate.
At the reference prices used for this guide — gold at USD 76.42 per gram and silver at USD 0.98 per gram, converted at 0.92 EUR per US dollar — the gold Nisab in Greece is EUR 6,150 (87.48g × EUR 70 per gram) and the silver Nisab is EUR 552 (612.36g × EUR 1 per gram). Treat both figures as indicative: the EUR rate and the metal markets move daily, which is why the calculator reprices the thresholds at the moment of use. So the line that matters most in Greece is the silver one, EUR 552: cross it with net wealth held for a hawl, and 2.5% of everything above zero — not just of the excess — is due.
In daily practice, payers settle their Zakat through a small number of well-worn channels: local Zakat committees that collect and distribute within the community, mosque collections, especially around Jumu'ah and during Ramadan and charity platforms and mobile giving apps. Whichever route you choose, delivery must be to recipients whom Quran 9:60 names as eligible, with ownership genuinely passing to them (tamlik). Many households in Greece settle the calculation at home first — often on a fixed Ramadan date — and then distribute through two or three trusted channels rather than one. Before paying, ask how funds are distributed, keep your payment receipt with your calculation report, and check whether administration costs come out of the Zakat itself where an organisation deducts them. In Greece, community life runs in Greek, so instructions left with family should be in the language they actually use.
The Ramadan of 1448 AH is planned from Monday 8 February 2027 in Greece, pending the sighted crescent and the announcement followed locally. The last ten nights begin at Maghrib on 27 February 2027, the search for Laylat al-Qadr falling on the odd nights that open on 27 February, 1, 3, 5 and 7 March and the 27th night falling on the evening of Friday 5 March 2027. Expect the last fast on 8 or 9 March 2027, and Eid al-Fitr on 9–10 March 2027. Sehri and Iftar times across Greece are collected via the Ramadan 2027 timetables by city, and Fitrana must be paid before the Eid prayer.
Take a saver in Greece with EUR 1,712 across cash and savings accounts , roughly 3.1 times the silver Nisab, and no debts due. The wealth is above the Nisab and has been held for a full lunar year, so the Zakat due is 2.5% × EUR 1,712 = EUR 43. Add any gold, stock or foreign currency in EUR first; the 2.5% then applies to the combined net total.
At this page's reference prices, gold's Nisab is EUR 6,150 for 87.48 grams of gold and silver's is EUR 552 for 612.36 grams of silver. Behind those figures sit gold at EUR 70 the gram and a silver gram at EUR 1 in Greece, at 0.92 EUR per US dollar. Prices move daily, so let the live calculator quote the exact threshold on your Zakat date; and most scholars test cash against the silver figure.
Calculations for Greece run in EUR, the Euro. Wealth held in other currencies is brought into EUR at your due date's rate then judged with everything else — a balance kept in Iceland, for example, enters at its EUR value on that date, not at the rate from when it was earned. The rules themselves do not change with the currency: the Nisab, the hawl and the 2.5% rate are identical in Greece to everywhere else.
Add up everything zakatable you own in EUR — cash, savings, gold and silver at today's prices, stock bought for resale, investments and money owed to you. Net off debts due, then compare the net figure with the Nisab — start with the silver figure, EUR 552. If it reaches the Nisab and a lunar year has passed, is charged at 2.5% of the whole amount : on savings of EUR 1,712, the example on this page, the payment is EUR 43.
No fixed figure exists for Greece: it is one sa' of staple — roughly 2–3 kilograms of wheat, flour, rice or dates — per person. Local scholars and councils publish the EUR figure every Ramadan, and community announcements there are commonly made in Greek. Pay it for each person in the household, children included, and deliver it before the Eid prayer. Enter the announced EUR rate in the Fitrana calculator and it totals the household's duty.
Regionally, Greece is grouped with the rest of Europe; the languages of its Muslim community here are Greek. Use code GR for the short page — the short page lives at zakatsuite.com/gr, while this long guide stays at the country address. Every one of the 209 tools accepts Greece with EUR, so nothing on the platform is closed to a payer here.
