If you live in Honduras, or hold your wealth there, this is your starting page — Americas region, Honduran lempira (HNL) as the money of the calculation, and a Muslim community whose main languages include Spanish. It brings together the Nisab in your currency — HNL 14,823 on the silver standard and HNL 165,125 on the gold standard, indicatively — practical notes on paying Zakat in Honduras, a step-by-step method, a worked example with real HNL figures, and answers to the questions payers in Honduras ask most. The calculators linked here run in your browser, free, with the Nisab converted into HNL at live metal prices rather than printed from a table that went stale last month.
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 24.7 HNL per US dollar — the gold Nisab in Honduras is HNL 165,125 (87.48g × HNL 1,888 per gram) and the silver Nisab is HNL 14,823 (612.36g × HNL 24 per gram). Treat both figures as indicative: on your actual due date the live tool will quote the thresholds afresh in Honduran lempira. The practical consequence in Honduras: net savings that pass HNL 14,823 and stay there for a lunar year are zakatable at 2.5% under the silver standard most scholars recommend for cash.
In Honduras today, most payers hand their Zakat over through the same short list of routes: community collection points and food banks during Ramadan, bank transfer to registered Zakat charities and local Zakat committees that collect and distribute within the community. On every route, delivery must be to recipients within the eight categories of Quran 9:60, and it must transfer into their ownership (tamlik). Plenty of households here calculate at home first, often against a fixed Ramadan date, then spread the payment over two or three trusted channels. Ask distributors how the money is separated, file the confirmation with your PDF report, and confirm whether any administration deduction touches the Zakat itself. A Zakat-specific fund, where a platform offers one, keeps the money out of general spending — the distinction is recorded in HNL on your statement.
Ramadan 1448 is expected to begin on Monday 8 February 2027 in Honduras as elsewhere, pending the sighted crescent and the announcement your community follows. Ramadan's last ten nights start from Maghrib on 27 February, Laylat al-Qadr being sought on the odd nights (27 February, 1, 3, 5 and 7 March) and the 27th night falling on the evening of Friday 5 March 2027. The final fast should fall on 8 or 9 March 2027, and Eid al-Fitr on 9–10 March 2027. For daily times in Honduras, use the Ramadan 2027 timetables by city, with Fitrana due before the Eid prayer, not after it.
Imagine savings in Honduras of HNL 54,844 across cash and savings accounts — about 3.7 times the silver Nisab — with no debts due. It has passed the Nisab and sat for a full lunar year, so the Zakat due is 2.5% × HNL 54,844 = HNL 1,371. If the same saver also held gold, business stock or foreign currency, those values would be added in HNL first and the 2.5% applied to the combined net total.
At this page's reference prices, gold stands at HNL 165,125 (87.48 grams of gold) and the silver threshold is HNL 14,823 — 612.36 grams of silver. Behind those figures sit per-gram values of HNL 1,888 for gold and a silver gram at HNL 24 in Honduras at the 24.7 HNL reference rate. Both metals trade daily, so check the live calculator for the threshold of your actual due date; most scholars recommend the silver Nisab for cash and savings.
For Honduras, the money of the calculation is HNL — the Honduran lempira. Foreign balances is brought into HNL at the rate of your Zakat due date and added before the Nisab test . What travels is the method, not the money: the Nisab, the hawl and the 2.5% rate are identical in Honduras to everywhere else.
Add up everything zakatable you own in HNL — cash, savings, gold and silver at today's prices, business stock, investments and money owed to you. Take off the debts due now, then compare the net figure with the Nisab — start with the silver figure, HNL 14,823. Once the threshold and the hawl are both met, is charged at 2.5% of the whole amount — HNL 1,371 on the HNL 54,844 example worked through above.
Fitrana (Zakat al-Fitr) is not a fixed ZakatSuite figure: it is the local cash value of one sa' of staple food — roughly 2–3 kilograms of wheat, flour, rice or dates — per person. Scholars and councils in Honduras announce the HNL rate each Ramadan, because it tracks the price of staple food in HNL, not any international figure. It is paid for every member of the household, including children, and must reach the poor before the Eid prayer. The Fitrana calculator on this site multiplies the announced local rate by your household size.
