A Comprehensive Guide to an Ideal Gift for Your Muslim Husband
Whether you're a Muslim yourself or no, finding a good gift for your husband, who is, need not be a challenging task. There are certain dos and don'ts that Muslims follow, but if you're married to him, you already know how religious he is and where he stands on things, and which tenets of Islam he is especially careful about.
We will help you use your own insights into his preferences to find a gift that he will enjoy. If you're a Muslim yourself, you'd be well aware of what's permissible, his interests, perhaps things he needs for prayers, and what he will be delighted to receive.
Tips on Giving Your Husband a Gift He Will Enjoy
Every person is unique in his or her own way. If you want to make your efforts a success, you must be ready to put time and effort into it along with lots of love and emotions. Your bonding and dedication towards your relationship should be reflected in your gift.
Understand Him Well: Traditional vs Modern
In order to buy him a special gift, you must understand him well to get a good idea of what exactly he is interested in. Your emotions and efforts for finding him the perfect gift plays a major role in this process of choosing the one for him. This reflects your closeness and his priority in your life. This depends on whether he is modern in his ideas and will appreciate trendy products for men or if he is more traditional and will prefer things attached to the Islamic way of life.
He can be a bit of both, so dig deeper and find something that appeals to both these sides of his personality. Based on that, you can find him the most suitable gift which he would love and treasure.
Make the Gift Interesting
The gift you give him should draw his curiosity and attention in a way that he likes it in the first look and loves you for having gifted the one meant just for his persona. His religion aside, there will be lots of things he is interested in, products he would like to have, things that will amuse or be of use to him. Even everyday objects can make for interesting gifts provided you find one created in a unique way. Like a manly beard kit that can make a daily chore fun for him, a wonderful new wallet or an e-book reader downloaded with a copy of the Quran.
The other thing is to present it in an unusual way. Wrap the merchandise in a way that it becomes unforgettable for him.
Should Hold a Special Place in His Heart
The gift you offer to your sweetheart should be a moment to cherish forever in all the years to come in your life together. It should make him feel special in a way that he has never felt like before. It would mean a great deal to him, so you can definitely put in some effort to make the occasion and gift an exotic one.

The mat comes with an inscription bearing this history, and Surah At-Tin, which has inspired it's design of figs and olives:
By the fig and the olive
And by Mount Sinai
And by this secure city of Makkah

Is not Allah the most just of judges?
