EID 2022: FINDING THE PERFECT WAY TO CELEBRATE.

With the most anticipated Eid "festival of the Sacrifice" coming, it's time to get ready to celebrate this year's Eid al-Adha. According to BBC, approximately 2 billion Muslims across the globe celebrate this holy festival.

In this post, I've put together a list of perfect gifts you could give your friends and family to help make their Eid even more special.

Gifts for Eid al- Adha

Traditionally, gifts were only given to children. These presents were often given in the form of money rather than actual gifts, however, over recent years, the practice of exchanging gifts has become much more popular. 

Jewellery: For younger generations, you could give something modern and stylish whereas, for someone who's from an older generation, something more traditional may be better suited to them. Beautiful jewellery is commonly available featuring Arabic or holy symbols for an added touch. 

Special Clothing (Abaya): On Eid, everyone dresses in their nicest clothes as part of the celebration, making clothing an ideal gift option. Choose something a little more distinctive than usual to make the recipient feel extra special and to really emphasise the celebratory nature of the event. For the people you're close to like a spouse or parent, Abaya Gown can be a perfect token for Eid.

Halal Food Hamper: A popular gift to give for Eid is a food basket or hamper. A food hamper will be great to put out at an Eid celebration when seeing family and friends. It will add to the selection of beautiful food available and is sure to encourage everyone to celebrate the festivities. Fill the basket with sweet treats or savoury snacks - this will surely be appreciated. Put some thought into the hamper by adding delightful foods the kids will love, for example; chocolate, dates, cakes and nuts can all be added to a basket as traditional foods.

Personalised Prayer Mat: A personalised prayer mat can be a thoughtful present to celebrate Eid al- Adha. Prayer mats are available in many styles and colours with options to add names, initials and messages. A personalised prayer mat will stand out wherever it's used.

This year's Eid al-Adha is on the 10th of July. so make sure you're prepared with the perfect gift for your loved ones!
