Eid Gifts & Fitrana

Give a Child a Eid Gift

Eid gifts are usually a package of food, some clothes and a toy for the family/children. The aim is to help provide a moment of normality and happiness to those whose lives have been torn apart.

It was said that the reason of the well-known habit of the Prophet of Allah (peace be upon him) which was to walk to the place of Eid prayer using one route and walk back using another was for the simple reason of being able to see more people and being able to distribute more gifts/charity.

UWT aims to provide a glimpse of this kindness by providing the poor with the gifts that they can take back to their families.

What is Fitrana?

Fitrana is enjoined on every Muslim and should be given before Eid, this is obligatory on every member of the family.

On such an auspicious and festive occasion as Ramadhan and Eid, Muslims are specially reminded of their obligations towards the poorer section of society. The contribution should be paid by the head of the family.

Fitrana should be paid so that the less fortunate among us are able to share in with the festivities. Fitrana is to be paid for every young or old member of the family. Its rates are fixed according to the prevailing rates of wheat and dates in various Muslim countries by Ulema (Islamic Scholars).

Insha-Allah UWT has made arrangements for Fitrana to be distributed to Widows, Orphans and the Poor on Eid day according to the Sunnah amount of weight. Donations will be accepted until Eid day. The rate fixed is £1.50 per person and will be distributed in Pakistan.
