Gift ideas for Eid al-Fitr

Eid al-Fitr marks the end of Ramadan. Its date depends on the sighting of the new moon, so families often only know the day for certain the evening before.

Money, known as Eidi, is traditionally given to children, and new clothes are worn for the day. Between adults, sweets, dates, perfume or something for the home are common gifts, and many people visit relatives with a box of something to share.

If you are buying for a Muslim friend or colleague, check that any food is halal and contains no alcohol.

Eid al-Fitr in the next three years

It follows a lunar or lunisolar calendar, so each year's date is confirmed nearer the time. A date marked expected is the best estimate until then.
