A baby's first Eid is one of those days families photograph from every angle. If you are the aunt, the grandparent or the friend wondering what to give, here are gift ideas for a Muslim newborn that parents actually keep, from the cot to the first year.

The short list:

Why a first Eid gift is different

At a few weeks old, the baby will not remember the day. The parents will. So the best first Eid gifts are the ones that make the nursery feel Muslim from the start: the Quran heard softly before sleep, a Kaaba above the cot, a comforter that recites the protective surahs. These gifts also do a quiet job for the parents, they soothe.

1. A Kaaba cot mobile

Hand-stitched Kaaba, moon and stars turning slowly above the cot. One hour of Quran and duas, Bluetooth to play the recitation you prefer, fits cots and playpens.

There is no other mobile like it: the Kaaba is sewn by hand, the arm clips onto most cots and the sound module can be detached and placed on a shelf when the baby grows. Parents often play Surah Al-Baqarah or their own recitation through Bluetooth. A white edition exists for neutral nurseries.

2. A Quranic plush comforter

Recites Al-Falaq, An-Nas and Al-Ikhlas, plus duas and white noise. Cry detection starts the recitation when baby wakes. Record your own voice. Washable.

The comforter is the gift that comes back in every message we receive from parents: it starts on its own when the baby cries, and the recorded voice of a parent settles a newborn in a way nothing else does. Choose between the bear Little Deen, the star Little Noor and the elephant Little Mahmud.

3. A Kaaba play gym

A soft spiral with a Kaaba and hanging shapes to reach for, from around 3 months. Wraps around cot bars and play mats.

Less expected than a mobile, and the gift the baby will grab first. It hangs over a play mat or wraps around the bars of the cot.

4. The newborn gift set

The Kaaba mobile, the play arch and the Quranic comforter in one box, at a set price. The gift several relatives can share.

When the family wants to give one large gift together, this is the box. Everything the nursery needs for the first year, delivered in one parcel.

5. For later in the first year

From six months, the My First Surahs sound book box set is the gift that grows with the child: three board books, one surah each (Al-Fatiha, Al-Falaq, Al-Ikhlas), a button to press and hear the recitation. Many parents buy it for the first Eid and keep it for the first birthday of the deen, the first words.

Practical notes for gifting abroad

We ship from Europe to the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, Australia, the Gulf, Switzerland and Norway, with tracking and free delivery from the equivalent of €50. Count 3 to 5 days for the UK and 8 to 10 working days for North America and Australia. If the baby is due around Eid, order for the due date rather than for Eid: the mobile and the comforter are useful from the first night home.
