Ramadan starts in a few days and Muslim folks are gearing up to embark on a 30-day long fasting exercise. If you’ve got Muslims friends and want to support them during this period, a Ramadan gift basket is a great place to start.

Ramadan Gift Basket Ideas
Foodstuff

Food inflation is crazy high and your Muslim friends will appreciate a Ramadan gift basket of items that take the pressure off their food consumption bills.
A foodstuff basket can include a bag of rice, kegs of palm oil and groundnut oil, tubers of yam, a paint bucket of garri, and more. Your budget will determine the size and quantity of each item.
Protein cuts

Beef, turkey, fish and even ponmo have doubled in price, no thanks to food inflation. Take the expense off your Muslim friends by giving them fresh or oven-dried protein options that’ll last them through the month of Ramadan.
Beverages

During the fasting period, folks can’t consume liquid between 12 and 13 hours every day. You should consider giving your Muslim friends a gift basket with healthy and non-alcoholic drinks that’ll keep them refreshed after breaking the day’s fast.
Prayer essentials

The month of Ramadan isn’t just about going on a hunger strike for your creator; it’s also a time to get closer to God. Gift your Muslim friends personalised gift baskets that include Qur’ans, hadith books, incense, rosaries, a praying mat, etc.
Oral care essentials

Abstinence from eating and drinking during Ramadan can cause an unpleasant smell in the mouth. Curate a gift box that contains oral care essentials like mouthwash, toothpaste, toothbrushes, including miswak sticks, which are highly recommended for fresh breath during ramadan.
Ramadan Fruit Basket
Fruits are one of the most essential items during Ramadan and many people break their fast with them. If you’re not a fan of the regular gift hampers, you should consider giving out a Ramadan fruit basket.
Dates, oranges, pineapple, watermelon, and apples are some nice options to include in a Ramadan fruit basket.
