Giving Gifts on Eid al-Fitr
At Eid al–Fitr, it is typical to give out gifts of money to children in a tradition known as Eidyah. The term “Eidyah” is a combination of “Eid” and “hadiyah”, which translates to “Eid gifts” in English.
This tradition dates back to the 10th century when Fatimid caliphs gave out money, sweets, and clothes to both young and old on the first day of Eid. Nowadays, Eidyah encompasses a variety of different types of gifts.
Gift-giving is a great way to celebrate the joyous occasion of Eid al-Fitr. As well as show your love and appreciation for your family and friends and your gratitude for Allah’s blessings.
