Thoughtful Muslim Wedding Gifts They Will Treasure!

If you’re heading to the wedding of a friend, family member or loved one who is Muslim and want to get them a gift that really means something and you can keep forever, then you’re in the right place.

We’re here with inspiration to suit every budget and every type of couple, to help you make their day that bit more memorable, as well as tying in their commitment to Islam to make it all the more special.

Customised Jewellery

Firstly, a really beautiful gift to get for the happy couple is customised jewellery. Getting them something to wear and love forever is so special, and you can choose things that will be meaningful to them. You could get them Arabic name necklaces and they can wear each other's names, wearing it close to each other's hearts. You could get matching necklaces or bracelets that represent marriage or part of the Qur'an that is important to them. There are so many options here and it’s a fantastic gift.

Personalised Prayer Mat

Another wonderful idea as a Muslim wedding gift that is truly meaningful is a personalised prayer mat. Even if the couple already have their prayer mats, having one that is a memory of one of the most special days of their life can be really meaningful to them. This is a thoughtful and practical gift and you can get matching mats for the couple, with an embellishment of your choice. This is a very personal choice and a critical part of people’s faith, so getting them a gift of comfort and meaning is special.

Home Scent Gift Set

If you don’t know the couple well and wouldn’t feel comfortable choosing something very personal, then a home scent gift set is a lovely gift idea. Beautiful Oud fragrances transform the home and it’s good fun going to smell them and pick them out! You can get a set with reed diffusers, candles and room sprays. If you were happy to spend a bit more, you could also get a unisex perfume for the couple to share.

Light Up Acrylic Plaque

For something that the couple can display in their home, a light-up acrylic plaque is really lovely. You can get the plaque engraved with lots of different things, like a silhouette of the couple with the wedding date, perhaps inspirational verses from the Qur'an about love and marriage, or anything else personal to their relationship. You can get these from small businesses on Etsy at a quite reasonable price so it is definitely worth looking into.

House Plants

Lastly, consider gifting houseplants. While specific flowers like roses, lilies, or tulips are not directly mentioned in the Qur'an, the concept of flowers is conveyed through references to fragrant plants, lush gardens, and the fleeting beauty of worldly vegetation. These descriptions carry deep spiritual symbolism, highlighting Allah's creativity and the contrast between temporary worldly life and eternal paradise. Houseplants can serve as meaningful gifts, helping the couple incorporate physical representations of these values into their home and garden.

Fragrant flowers like roses and jasmine, often associated with the beauty of Allah’s creations, are particularly popular at weddings. A rose plant or jasmine plant would not only symbolize the splendour of Allah’s creations but also fill their home with a lovely scent and serve as a lasting reminder of their special day.
