We’re nearing the end of Ramadan, and if you're already preparing for the big celebration—it’s time to start thinking about the best Eid gifts to buy. Whether you’ve been observing Ramadan yourself or would like to give your Muslim friends a well-deserved treat after a month of fasting, we’ve rounded up the best Eid gifts to shop right now. 

When is Eid al-Fitr 2024?

It is anticipated that Eid al-Fitr will fall on or around the 9th of April this year. The exact date of Eid is never completely certain, as it's based on the lunar cycle—the month of Ramadan is over when a new moon is sighted. Eid marks the beginning of the 10th month of the Islamic calendar, and this shifts by about 2 weeks from one year to the next.  

After a month of fasting, Eid is celebrated by visiting, sharing gifts and breaking bread with loved ones. Growing up, I always remember new clothes, food and money being among the most traditional presents (and if I'm honest, the ones I most looked forward to). Now, I’m not one to reject a gift of money, but there’s something much more special about a well-thought-out and personal present.

If you're on the lookout for more seasonal gifting options, we've rounded up the best Easter eggs and beauty eggs, but what about the best Eid gifts?

From delicate jewellery and intricately decorated biscuits to luxury candles, clothing and even chic cookware, we’ve put together the most thoughtful Eid gifts to treat your loved ones to this year.
