33 Eid Gifts That Are Beautiful and Meaningful in Equal Measure

The month of Ramadan, which is observed annually by millions of Muslims, takes place in the ninth month of the Islamic lunar calendar and is observed through fasting and taking increased time for prayer, self-reflection and charity. As we approach the end of the month, with the last 10 days being the most significant, Muslims around the world are increasing their focus even more as we try to make the most of these blessed days.
However, it is also a time to start looking ahead to Eid al-Fitr, the festival which marks the end of Ramadan. Eid al-Fitr, which translates to "the Festival of Breaking Fast" is a time to celebrate with loved ones, dressing up in new clothes and hosting traditional dinners. It is a moment to be grateful that are we able to indulge in all the delicious dishes we may have missed whilst fasting.
It is also a time for gift giving and exchanging presents and money, known as Eidi, with family and friends. Ramadan, for me, always leaves me feeling extra sentimental and appreciative for my loved ones and the Muslim community. Nothing strengthens bonds like having to sleepily eat cereal at 4 a.m. for Suhoor or the post-Iftar rush to the mosque. Being able to spoil those who observe the month by my side on Eid day brings me true joy.
However, shopping for Eid can often be a little challenging, as, unlike national festivals, stores have not always been filled with premade gifts that can be bought at the last minute. However, more so than ever before, we are seeing brands step up and curate Eid gifts specific to the Muslim community. There's nothing I love more than giving gifts, so I've taken the work out for you by rounding up the best Eid gifts to give this year.
Best Eid Gifts Under £30
I love a brand that does its research, and LUSH develops their Eid collection every year with a Muslim focus group. With thoughtful names such as 'Basma' and 'Salam', the brand speaks perfectly to the Muslim audience. Bonus points for their website which even references requesting female therapists for their LUSH Spa - something which many Muslims find hard to ask for!
Simply adorable, this is a thoughtful gift for the babies in your life experiencing their very first Eid.
With both Jellycat and bag charms trending right now, this gift is sure to get a smile out of anyone.
Finding classy decor for Eid can often be a challenge, but these banners are a neutral dream, elevating any Eid tablescape.
Whilst dates are consumed vastly throughout Ramadan, they also make a great addition to the Eid menu, and these chocolate covered ones are the best I've had.
For the gym bunnies in your life, this super soft lightweight hijab is perfect for working out.

I just adore this chai gift set from Dishoom with their delicious house blend as well as the classic glass cups and a mesh strainer. Serve up hot on Eid day!
Designed to fit their iconic Always Pan, this clay Tagine has been handcrafted by artisans in Morocco. Charity is extra important to Muslims in Ramadan and all profits of this are donated to deliver emergency aid in Gaza.
I've purchased this as a gift multiple times over the years, including to myself. Equal parts practical and stylish.
Charlotte Tilbury makes for a wonderful gift for beauty lovers, and this year they've repackaged some of their heroes for Ramadan and Eid.
Some of the best chocolates I've ever tasted, I'm obsessed with the attention to detail here. The half-moon shaped truffles are perfect to serve alongside chai on Eid.
When I saw that this iconic Penhaligon's fragrance was available in candle form, I knew it would be perfect for Eid.
I've had my eye on these small batch handmade mugs for the longest time. They sell out quickly so snap them up whilst you can.
There is little I love more than an oversized sweatshirt, and Adanola do some of the best. With summer holiday bookings underway, this is a gift that promises plane comfort, every single time.
I've never met a Diptyque gift I didn't like, and their limited edition launches are always extra special. The beautiful box requires no extra gift wrapping.
Richly scented with patchouli and spices, this Oudh diffuser lasts around 5 months. A gift that keeps on giving.
To complete her Eid beauty look, Merit's newest lip launch is sure to spark joy. Note this one down for sisters - it's what I'll be giving mine.
Pyjamas are a winning gift for any occasion in my opinion, and these ones are soft, silky, sustainable and come in an array of colours.
The perfect gift for teens, this warm floral opens with soft jasmine and fresh blood orange before settling into a musky vanilla.
These Slip scrunchies are gentle on the hair and the new season's colours are extra fun for summer.
Best Luxury Eid Gifts
If you're down to truly spoil someone, the new Dyson Airwrap has everything one could need for the best hair day, everyday. Available for all hair types from straight and wavy to curly and coily.
A new iteration of their bestselling Valaya, this gourmand fragrance is a complex curation of sweet almond, floral orange blossom and rich sandalwood. Gift on Eid morning so they can complete their festive look with a spritz.
With the weather finally brightening up, hopefully their Eid fit will require a stylish pair of sunnies, and who else but Jimmy Fairly to deliver?
Housed in their iconic ceramic vessel, this limited edition candle from LOEWE is sure to please any recipient. One for the person hosting you on Eid day!
I'd gift this one to mothers or grandmothers, with the birthstones of their loved ones. A thoughtful piece they're sure to treasure for years to come.
The newest fragrance from Le Labo is equal parts fresh and woody, suitable for everyone. The Le Labo counter at Harrods even offers Arabic personalisation for that extra special touch.
This under the radar 'it girl' shoe is one to gift the style icon in your life.
Undoubtedly an investment, but if you want to go big on an Eid gift this year, I can't think of anyone who wouldn't benefit from this smart, stylish health tracker that does so much more than you'd think it capable of.
With wedding season coming shortly after Eid, this handy hair tool will definitely be a hit when gifted, making light work of styling.
We appreciate not everyone loves chai, and this hot chocolate machine is a wonderful addition to any kitchen. The starter kit comes with a selection of flavours, as well as two ceramic podcups.
There are some people that I'll always get a practical and useful gift for, and an electric toothbrush ticks those boxes. This one by SURI is chic enough to sit on your bathroom shelf, and sustainable too!
