Micronesia at a glance for the Zakat payer: Oceania region, United States dollar (USD) as the money of the calculation, and a Muslim community whose main languages include English. Below you will find today's indicative Nisab values in United States dollar, the way Zakat is commonly paid in Micronesia, a worked example, and the dates and timetable links you need for Ramadan 2027. The calculators linked here run in your browser, free, with the Nisab converted into USD at live metal prices rather than printed from a table that went stale last month.
Priced from the reference metal values behind this guide (gold USD 76.42/g, silver USD 0.98/g, at 1 USD to the dollar), one gram of gold is worth USD 76 in Micronesia and one gram of silver USD 1. The thresholds those prices produce are USD 6,685 for gold (87.48g) and USD 600 for silver (612.36g). Treat both figures as indicative: metal prices and exchange rates move every day, and the live calculator on this site fetches current prices before it tests your wealth. So the line that matters most in Micronesia is the silver one, USD 600: cross it with net wealth held for a hawl, and 2.5% of everything above zero — not just of the excess — is due.
In practice, most Zakat is paid through a few familiar channels: payroll deduction schemes offered by some employers, community collection points and food banks during Ramadan and bank transfer to registered Zakat charities. The channel matters less than the conditions: the wealth must reach recipients within the eight categories of Quran 9:60, and become theirs in law and fact (tamlik). Plenty of households here the calculation is settled at home, then the payment is split across two or three trusted routes. Ask any intermediary how they distribute, keep the receipt beside your calculation report, noting the Hijri date of payment beside the Gregorian one. In Micronesia, community life runs in English, so instructions left with family should be in the language they actually use.
Ramadan 2027 is expected to begin on Monday 8 February 2027 in Micronesia as elsewhere, always subject to moon sighting and the announcement your community follows. The last ten nights begin from Maghrib on 27 February, the search for Laylat al-Qadr falling on the odd nights (27 February, 1, 3, 5 and 7 March) with the 27th night opening the evening of Friday 5 March 2027. Expect the last fast on 8 or 9 March 2027, with Eid al-Fitr on 9–10 March 2027. Daily fasting times for Micronesia are gathered through the Ramadan 2027 timetables by city, with Fitrana due before the Eid prayer, not after it.
A resident of Micronesia holding USD 3,301 held as cash and savings , roughly 5.5 times the silver Nisab, and no debts due. It has passed the Nisab and sat for a full lunar year, so 2.5% is due: USD 83. If the same saver also held gold, business stock or foreign currency, those values would be added in USD first and the 2.5% applied to the combined net total.
The short answer for Micronesia: the gold threshold is USD 6,685 for 87.48 grams of gold and silver's is USD 600 for 612.36 grams of silver. Behind those figures sit a gold gram at USD 76 and a silver gram at USD 1 in Micronesia, at 1 USD per US dollar. Markets move every day, so use the live calculator for the binding figure on your due date; most scholars recommend the silver Nisab for cash and savings.
Calculations for Micronesia run in USD (United States dollar). Foreign balances converts into USD at your due date's rate and added to the total before the Nisab test . What travels is the method, not the money: the same calculation a payer runs in Kiribati, settled here in United States dollar.
Work in USD throughout: balances, metals at today's price, stock, investments and receivables. Deduct debts that are due now, then compare the net figure with the Nisab — start with the silver figure, USD 600. Once the threshold and the hawl are both met, pay 2.5% of the net total to eligible recipients — USD 83 on the USD 3,301 example worked through above.
No fixed figure exists for Micronesia: it is one sa' of staple — roughly 2–3 kilograms of wheat, flour, rice or dates — per person. Local scholars and councils set the rate in USD each year, and community announcements there are commonly made in English. It is paid for every member of the household, including children, with the Eid prayer as the deadline. The Fitrana calculator on this site multiplies the announced local rate by your household size.
