Birthday gift

Question Detail:

My question is on permisibility of birthday gift given on any other day.

Answer :

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

You have abstained from celebrating your birthday to the best of your ability. Alhamdulillah.
