Spread joy this Eid al-Adha 

A widespread tradition of Eid is the exchanging of gifts, known as ‘Eidi’ or ‘Eidiya’.

Eid gifts are a special part of Islamic Relief’s global programme and – for communities and children living in poverty – it can be transformative.

Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) encouraged this practice, saying:

Our Eid gifting programme aims to spread joy and hope among some of the most vulnerable groups of children under the age of 18. Children receive useful items such as new clothes, school bags and other educational equipment, as well as toys and treats, to bring enjoyment.

Last year, we delivered 31,605 Eid gifts to nearly 50,000 children in 17 countries, across the world in Asia, Africa, Europe and the Middle East.
