Guide

The greetings, what they mean and where they come from

This card maker puts a correct Arabic greeting on a card in the AmalKit style, with the English beside it, your names and your message. It works for both Eids, Ramadan, Jummah, the Islamic new year, a new baby, a nikah and someone who is ill. It is free, needs no sign-up, and adds no watermark beyond a small line you can switch off.

For each occasion you can choose the wording. Where a greeting comes from the Prophet ﷺ or his Companions we say so, with the source. Where it is simply a good custom, such as Eid Mubarak, we say that too, so you know exactly what you are sending.

Saving and sharing

Tap Download PNG to save the card. On a phone that supports it, Share the card opens the share sheet so you can send it straight to WhatsApp or another app. Copy as text copies the Arabic and English greeting with your message, for a plain message instead of an image.

Your names stay on your device

The card is drawn in your browser. Nothing you type is sent to us or anyone else, and names are never put in the page link. The browser remembers the "From" name and your last design on this device only, so the next card is quicker.

About the designs

All seven designs are drawn from the same sources as the rest of AmalKit: the lapis and gold of illuminated Quran manuscripts, the gold unwan band of eight-point stars, the shamsa rosette, a mihrab arch and star tiles. There are no people, animals or faces in any of them, in line with the Hanafi position and the other schools on drawing living beings. The Arabic is set in Scheherazade New, a typeface made for Arabic with full vowel marks.

Replying to a greeting

Reply to a greeting with the same or better: "When you are greeted with a greeting, greet in return with what is better than it, or at least return it" (Quran 4:86). For Eid, the best reply is taqabbal Allahu minna wa minkum back. See the pages on Eid Mubarak, Ramadan Mubarak and Jummah Mubarak for each greeting's meaning and replies.

  1. Quran 4:86, translation by Sahih International.
  2. Sources for each greeting are in the table above.
  3. On pictures of living beings: Ibn Abidin, Radd al-Muhtar, Kitab al-Salah, Bab ma yufsid al-salah wa ma yukrah fiha.

Questions

Good to know

How do I make an Eid Mubarak card with my name?

Choose Eid al-Fitr or Eid al-Adha, pick a design, type the names in the To and From boxes, then tap Download PNG. The name appears on the card as you type.

What size is best for a WhatsApp status?

Choose Status or story, which makes a 1080 by 1920 pixel image that fills a phone screen. For a chat or an Instagram post, the square 1080 by 1080 size is best.

Is it allowed to send Eid cards?

Yes. Congratulating one another on Eid is allowed and good in all four schools, and a card is simply a way of sending the greeting. The Companions greeted each other on Eid with taqabbal Allahu minna wa minkum.

Why are there no people or animals on the cards?

The designs follow the Islamic art tradition of pattern, calligraphy and objects. Pictures of living beings are disliked or forbidden by the four schools, so we keep to geometric art, the crescent and stars.

Are the names I type uploaded anywhere?

No. The card is drawn in your browser and saved straight to your device. Nothing is sent to a server.
