Eid and Ramadan Gifts for Muslim Men

Short answerMuslim men are hard to buy for because most of them say they want nothing. The way through is to give something that matches what he is actually doing, not what he says. Running a business: Halal Hustler. Chasing a goal or a promotion: Salah, Shawarma, Success. Lives by routine: Pray Du'a Shawarma Repeat. Serious about food: That Shawarma Life. Celebrating something: It's Shawarma Time Ya Salaam. All five are 200 page Islamic notebooks with Bismillah on every page, affordable, and funny enough on the cover to get past the nothing.

The occasions, and what each one wants

Eid al-Fitr. He has fasted thirty days and has strong feelings about the first proper meal. It's Shawarma Time Ya Salaam gets a laugh at the table and then gets used. Hardcover for a gift.

Eid al-Adha. The family gathering. Something that works in a room. Pray Du'a Shawarma Repeat, deadpan, or Ya Salaam, loud.

Ramadan. Give it before the month. Founders and goal setters reset in Ramadan and want paper. Halal Hustler for the business, Salah, Shawarma, Success for everything else he is chasing.

New business or promotion. Halal Hustler for a shop, a startup, a freelance career. Salah, Shawarma, Success for a promotion or a degree.

Graduation. Salah, Shawarma, Success. It is about what comes next.

He eats shawarma more than is reasonable. That Shawarma Life. He has been seen.

Why a notebook gets past the nothing

Because it does not ask anything of him. It is not a subscription, it is not a course, and it does not sit on a shelf accusing him. It is 200 college ruled pages with Bismillah ar-Rahman ar-Raheem at the top of every one, and a cover that makes a true joke about his week. He can fill it or lose it in a drawer. Either way it cost less than a dinner out.

Takeaway. He says he wants nothing. Give him something that is about what he does, and he will use it.
