Why it matters

Sadaqah with a real impact receipt

The spirit of Eid is giving. In the Islamic tradition, charity — sadaqah — is not just a financial act but an expression of gratitude, community, and connection with those who have less. A gift to someone you love that simultaneously funds a life-saving intervention for someone who has nothing is, we think, one of the most meaningful things you can give.

Every gift in World Aid Network's virtual shop is a specific, costed programme line. When you give Cataract Surgery for Eid, you are not making a vague donation — you are funding one 30-minute operation that restores full sight to one adult patient who would otherwise live the rest of their life in preventable blindness.

At checkout, you can add a personal message and send the gift in someone's name. Your recipient receives a notification in time for Eid, explaining exactly what was funded on their behalf. It costs from £10.

Questions about Eid gifts

What is a charity gift for Eid?

An Eid charity gift is a donation made on behalf of someone to fund a specific humanitarian intervention — such as cataract surgery or emergency food relief. Instead of giving a material present, you give something that saves or improves a life.

Is giving charity on Eid recommended in Islam?

Yes. Sadaqah (voluntary charity) is encouraged throughout the Islamic calendar, and Eid is particularly associated with generosity, sharing, and giving. Zakat al-Fitr is a required charity before Eid al-Fitr, but voluntary sadaqah is welcomed at any time.

Can I give a virtual gift in someone else's name for Eid?

Yes. At checkout, select 'Send as a gift' and enter the recipient's name and email. They'll receive a personal notification explaining exactly what was funded in their honour.

How is this different from Zakat?

Zakat is an obligatory pillar of Islam with specific rules about recipients and amounts. These gifts are sadaqah — voluntary charity — with no minimum amount and no restrictions on who gives or why.
