We have next door neighbors that are Muslim and are so very kind. They bring us plates of food when they cook and they even scared away some kids trying to steal our car at 2 in the morning.
I wanted to return the favor with a nice card from us and a gift. I don’t know how strict they are with Halal, and I read that Halal-friendly might not be good enough so I’m weary of a gift card to a restaurant even if it says Halal.
So what kind of gift(s) would be appropriate for a thank you? I appreciate any help you all can provide!

You would be showered with upvotes if this was a Christian family in question. Shows Muslims are given an unfair special treatment
Well, I downvoted because how is this helpful or a thoughtful gift for anyone, unless this is something they specifically have an identity around or are heavily invested in?
Even an LGBTQ+ person I wouldn’t buy a rainbow flag or rainbow gear for unless they specifically wanted one and didn’t have one. I’d try and get them something useful like food, something to entertain themselves, etc.
No one’s afraid to say anything so much as you seem really annoying. But I’m also annoying, so I’ll say something.
That’s lame as hell, regardless of their religion. You don’t know that they’re homophobic and they also did something nice for OP. Why would you give them something intended to annoy them, that they probably can’t use, as a gift? Just stupid.
What exactly is annoying about the rainbow flag? Ah yes, homophobic religion.
I’m an atheist, and gay, and I just feel like “haha, you’re a good neighbor so here’s a flag for something that I’m going to ASSUME you’re a hateful bigot instead of actually getting to know you” is kinda bad
it also doesn’t really promote community. Idk, I don’t like it. I’m nice to christians even though some of them are cruel to me, because they’re not all the same. This kind of behavior reeks of “I just discovered atheism as a concept” type thing you see from teenagers. Grow up, be a good human.
