HOW MANY MUSLIMS ARE THERE?
Islam first spread rapidly throughout the Arab and surrounding countries, and then throughout the world. There are 1.2 billion Muslims in the world, including 7 million in the United States. Only about 18 percent of Muslims are Arabs and live in the Middle East. Indonesia and India are the largest Muslim populations countries. Islam has two basic groups: Sunnis account for about 80% of the world’s Muslims and Shiites account for about 20% of the world’s Muslims. Although they share the same basic beliefs, they disagree on who is the legitimate leader of Islam after Muhammad’s death.
HOW DID ISLAM BEGIN?
Islam is a monotheistic faith centered on the belief in one God (Allah). All the prophets preached the same universal message of belief in one God and mercy to mankind. According to Muslims, the last of the prophets in this series was Muhammad. He was first a shepherd and then a merchant. Due to superstition and social and economic injustice, he was dissatisfied with those around him. People are worshiping many gods, but they have forgotten the message of the prophet Abraham to worship one god. Muhammad liked to pray and meditate on the mountain. Once, in AD 610, when he was about 40 years old, he received a revelation from God through the angel Jibril (Gabriel). He continued to receive messages from God throughout his life and began to tell others what he had learned. His main message is that there is no other God but Allah and that people should live in a way that pleases Allah.
HOW MANY BELIEFS DO MUSLIMS HAVE?
Muslims have six beliefs:
1. Faith in Allah
2. Believe in Angels
3. Belief in the Holy Books sent to all the prophets, including the Law revealed to the Prophet Moses, the Bible revealed to the Prophet Jesus, and the Quran (Quran) revealed to the Prophet Muhammad
4. Believe in all the prophets sent by God, including Noah, Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad. Although Muslims believe in Isaac or Jesus, they do not think of Jesus as the Son of God the way Christians do.
5. Believe in destiny. This means that God is almighty and nothing can happen without his permission, however, he gives man the freedom to choose whether it is good or bad. In the end, everyone is asked how they lived their life.
6. Believe in Judgment Day and life after death. The best reward for doing good is drawing near to God.
WHAT ARE THE FIVE PILLARS OF ISLAM?
Shahadah (Declaration of Faith)
Testimony or proof that there is no god but one God (Allah) and that Muhammad is his prophet or messenger.
Salat (Ritual Prayer)
Five prayers a day, at dawn, noon, noon, sunset, and evening. The prayers are offered in Arabic, facing the direction of Mecca.
Zakat (alms tax)
Donate 2.5% of one’s wealth to the poor and needy.
Sawm (fasting)
Muslims fast during the day of the ninth month of the Islamic lunar calendar (called Ramadan). The aim is to remind people of the good things they have and to show equality with the poor. Ramadan is a time for learning and self-discipline.
Hajj (pilgrimage)
Muslims believe that they must make a pilgrimage to Mecca at least once in their lives. Muhammad restored it to worship Allah. Therefore, it is a very sacred place for Muslims.
WHAT IS THE SCRIPTURE OF THE FINAL REVELATION OF MUSLIMS?
Muslims believe that the verse of the last revelation given by Allah is the Qur’an or the Qur’an. These are the words of Allah presented to Muhammad in Arabic during his 23-year mission. The Qur’an was written by scribes and was remembered throughout Muhammad’s life. The Quran emphasizes moral, ethical, and spiritual values and aims to establish justice for everyone. Many Muslims people try to learn the Quran
THE BASIC FUNCTION OF ISLAMIC GIFT BOX PACKAGING
The Islamic gift box packaging is mainly to protect the product
The primary purpose of Islamic gift box packaging is to protect the product. Packaging design must take into account safety, including the safety of the production itself and the safety of the packaged items. The packaging design should select reasonable packaging materials such as containers according to the characteristics of the goods, and consider all aspects such as packaging, storage, transportation, and use to ensure foolproof. For example, if the gift you want to give is fruit, then the Islamic gift box for packing the fruit needs to use food-safe materials, and cannot use toxic materials such as plastic.
Easy to carry
The Islamic gift box has the characteristics of convenient storage and transportation. If you’re giving out a lot of gifts, you’re bound to be in a hurry if you don’t have a big container to hold them. Therefore, the appearance of the Islamic gift box broke this dilemma. In modern society, people use gift boxes more and more frequently.
Beautiful appearance
A good-looking Islamic gift box can make people feel spiritually happy and meet people’s needs for beauty. The exquisite wedding gift box packaging will be more distinctive in shape, color matching, and pattern, which will make us more impressed by the packaging, and will also deepen the guest’s impression of the wedding. This is the result of packaging design aesthetics. Exquisite and unique packaging design has a profound impact on people, so packaging design should be considered from the perspective of beauty. In addition, we can also write some Quranic quotations on the Islamic gift box to show good wishes to the recipient.
Environmental protection
From the perspective of environmental protection, one is not to over-package, which not only wastes resources, but also causes great harm to the earth; second, the materials used for gift boxes should be scientific, and comprehensively consider some problems attached to Islamic gift box packaging, such as right Whether there are side effects to human health, handling or recycling of packaging materials, etc., to achieve “green” packaging.
THE MATERIAL OF ISLAMIC GIFT BOX
Wooden
First of all, precious wood will form a unique and beautiful texture due to differences in climate, soil, and tree species in the natural growing environment. After careful design and processing, its Islamic gift box has aesthetics. Second, natural wood emits a fragrant smell after sawing. Scientists have found that the smell released by different tree species has different effects. Third, because the wood has certain moisture absorption and dehumidification functions, wood building materials have a certain adjustment effect on indoor humidity. If the indoor air humidity is too high, the wood will absorb part of the moisture from the air and, on the contrary, release the moisture. This will help create a comfortable living environment for you and your family. Fourth, the wooden Islamic gift box is very environmentally friendly because the wooden box can be used twice.
Coated paper
As a common packaging material, coated paper is also one of the common materials for making Islamic gift boxes. Its main raw materials are coated base paper and paint. In addition, we can also make paints, adhesives, and auxiliary materials into paints, and print various exquisite patterns and colors on them. Because of its good whiteness and gloss, it can take pictures and pictures show a three-dimensional effect during printing. Coated paper can be said to be the preferred paper for Islamic gift boxes! Whether it’s its thickness or its ink properties, it’s also excellent. It also has good elasticity and water resistance
Kraft paper
Kraft paper, white cardboard, and coated paper are well-deserved materials for making cartons. For customers who customize Islamic gift boxes, the lower-cost kraft paper will be the first choice. Kraft paper is durable. Make envelopes, paper bags, shopping bags, and more. For example, the Xiaomi mobile phone packaging box is made of kraft paper as the outer paper.
Corrugated paper
This kind of paper is commonly used in single-corrugated paper and double-corrugated paper. Common colors are yellow and white. This paper is light in weight, good in structure performance, strong in load-bearing capacity, moisture-proof, and can also print in various colors, but the effect is not as good as single-powder double-copper and can be used with inlaid white cards for more vivid color printing.
Cardboard
This kind of paper is often used to make an Islamic gift box structures, with a layer of single powder paper or special paper on the surface. If the mounted paper is single powder, the printing process is the same as that of single powder; if it is special paper, most of them can only be hot stamped, and some can be easily printed.
Special paper
There are many kinds of special paper, and the design effect is different. However, due to the special texture or characteristics of the special paper itself, color printing will produce color cast, which is suitable for simple design and special process design, and is often used with special paper for gray board mounting.
THE SIZE OF ISLAMIC GIFT BOX
It is very important to choose the right size Islamic gift box. It makes your gift look more attractive when you put it in a good-sized box. Sometimes, it can be difficult to find a gift box that matches the gift. In this case, you can rely on purchasing custom Islamic gift boxes. These custom Islamic gift boxes allow the user to choose the box with the desired size.
THE COLORS OF ISLAMIC GIFT BOX
The color of the Islamic gift box is very important, not only because of different religions, but also because it can show how well the giver understands the personality and preferences of the recipient, and can better reflect your aesthetic ability. There are many color options for Islamic gift boxes, but most of them are golden yellow, pink, dark brown, etc. The color of the Islamic gift box is best in line with the personality of Islam, and the color of the Islamic gift box will add luster to the gift.
WHAT’S IN THE ISLAMIC GIFT BOX?
Prayer mat or rug
It is known that all Muslims must pray five times a day; prayer is also about one’s faith and purity of heart. So for this reason, you can send a nice prayer mat or rug in an Islamic gift box.
The Quran
The Quran is the best book in the whole world, and the best way to show your love and gratitude to a Muslim man is by gifting him the Holy Quran. Also, you can gift him a set of 30 parts of the Quran (Sipara/Juzz) with translation and transliteration in any language, which will help him read the Quran part by part.
Bookshelf
For a Muslim with strong religious ties, it is a blessing to have a bookshelf as it makes him comfortable to read and keep the Quran on the bookshelf, while other times he can keep the holy books on the bookshelf superior.
Smart Watches
It not only shows the time of Ajahn but also the direction in which he is facing Qibla from anywhere on Earth.
Bookmarks
Give him a nice set of bookmarks that he can use while reading the Quran or any other book. Wherever he wants to stop reading a book, he can put bookmarks there for later recall.
The Kaaba miniature
The Kaaba miniature is also perfect for him. The miniatures exist in crystals with water and sparkle in them. It also has a special pocket to store pens or pencils, making it the perfect gift for his office use.
A set of plates
The use of ceramics to make bowls, plates, decorations, etc. Giving away a set of plates that includes: Allah, Muhammad, Ayatoll Kulsi, etc. is probably the best option, as there is no Muslim home or place that has no dedication to our creator at all.
VARIOUS MATTERS OF SENDING ISLAMIC GIFT BOX
Why gifts are so important
The significance of gifts lies in value rather than price. As the saying goes: “Send goose feathers for thousands of miles, and gifts are light and affectionate.” In general, Islamic gift boxes should be given in consideration of the specific situation and occasion. Generally, when going to a private banquet, you should bring some small gifts for the hostess, such as bouquets, fruits, souvenirs, etc. Children with children can send toys and candy. When invited to a wedding, in addition to artistic decorations, bouquets, and practical items can also be presented. During the New Year and Christmas, calendars, wine, tea, candy, cigarettes, etc. can generally be presented. In addition, etiquette must also be decent, etiquette refers to the complete cooperation between etiquette and etiquette. When giving an Islamic gift box, pay attention to the expression of attitude, action, and language. Peaceful, friendly, and generous movements accompanied by polite language expressions are what the recipients are happy to accept. The practice of quietly placing gifts under the table or in a corner of the room like a thief will not only fail to achieve the purpose of gifting but may even be counterproductive. When introducing the gifts you give, you should emphasize your goodwill and affection for the recipient, rather than the actual value of the gifts. Make the other party feel like they’re accepting a bribe.
Choose a suitable time and place to send an Islamic gift box
Islamic gift boxes should generally be given on the spot or in person. Usually, it is not appropriate to give a gift to only one person in a group in public. Because the recipient will feel bribed and fooled, and it will make those who do not receive the gift feel neglected and despised. Giving Islamic gift boxes to close people should also not be done in public, so as not to leave the public with the impression that your close relationship is entirely supported by material things. Only the special ceremony mouths that are light and affectionate, and the gifts that express special emotions, are suitable to be presented in front of the public. Such as a special souvenir and so on. For now, the public has become a witness to your true friendship. But when people attend the wedding, they can also be sent in advance. Celebrate festivals, give New Year’s gifts, or send someone to your door or mail. At this time, the gift-givers business card should be attached to the gift, or a congratulatory message can be handwritten. In the middle of the night, in an envelope of the same size, the name of the recipient should be marked on the envelope, and it should be pasted on the top of the gift wrapping.
Religious taboos on gifts
Some of the taboos on gifts have a religious significance, so special caution should be exercised. In Muslim countries, the Middle East, and the Near East, Muslims strictly prohibit idolatry, because idolatry is contrary to Islamic teachings. Therefore, things that resemble people in appearance, such as dolls, children’s toys, and figures in handicrafts, cannot be put in Islamic gift boxes as gifts. Otherwise, they will be considered disrespectful to their religious beliefs. And Muslims never put such items in their homes as decorations. Some Arab countries also strictly prohibit alcohol, so do not send alcohol gifts.
Also, in Southeast Asian countries such as Myanmar and Thailand where Buddhism is prevalent, people cannot directly send cash to monks. In the early morning, when you walk on the beautiful streets of Myanmar, you will often see such a scene: monks walk along the door to hold alms, households and passers-by take out pre-prepared food to give to monks, and monks put their hands together in thanks. At this time, someone who took out cash and gave it to a monk would be scolded by others, because monks should never touch the money – this is also one of the precepts of Buddhism in this country.
