The holy month of Ramadan is almost coming to an end and Muslim brothers and sisters across the globe are set to celebrate Eid-ul-Fitr in joyful acknowledgment of the month. Eid is one of the most anticipated events in the Islamic calendar.

Eid-al-fitr which is basically the Festival of Breaking Fast is an event that follows the Islamic month of Ramadan which is observed by millions of Muslims around the world.

As it fast approaches, this is the perfect time to show your Muslim friends and family how much you appreciate them with heartfelt gifts that reflect their faith and culture. Eid is commemorated by exchanging gifts one can remember or money (known as Eidi/Eidia) with loved ones.

Gift-giving on Eid has become more common in the past few years, but it can still be a challenge to find the perfect present. Unlike Christmas, it isn’t as simple as browsing stores piled high with various gift ideas for everyone

So here are seven thoughtful gift ideas, infused with both tradition and uniqueness that you can present to your friends and family this year:

Customized Prayer Mat: Elevate their prayer experience with a personalized prayer mat adorned with traditional Kenyan patterns and motifs. Not only will it add beauty to their prayer space, but it will also serve as a reminder of your thoughtfulness and appreciation for their faith.

Oud Burner and Fragrance Set: Delight their senses with the rich aroma of Oud, a cherished fragrance in many Muslim households. Gift them an elegant oud burner paired with a selection of high-quality oud incense or oils, allowing them to create a serene and uplifting atmosphere during their spiritual practices.

Halal Gourmet Food Hamper: Treat them to a luxurious assortment of halal gourmet delicacies sourced from Kenya. From premium dates to artisanal honey and exotic spices, curate a hamper filled with delectable treats that they can enjoy with family and friends during Eid celebrations.

Islamic Calligraphy Art: Inspire them with the beauty of Islamic calligraphy art, handcrafted by talented Kenyan artists. Whether it's a Quranic verse or a meaningful Islamic quote, choose a piece of art that resonates with their spiritual journey and adds elegance to their home decor.

Kenyan-themed Islamic Books: Expand their knowledge and deepen their faith with a collection of Islamic books with a Kenyan twist. From inspirational stories of Muslim scholars to guides on Islamic etiquette and spirituality, these books will enrich their understanding of Islam while celebrating Kenya's cultural heritage.
