Answer 2

Yeah you can give presents and cards. Say Eid Mubarak which basically means Happy Eid. Some of the basics of Eid you might want to know...

In Islam there are two Eid's;

Eid-ul-adha and Eid-ul-fitr. (Most people just say eid though, it's easier lol)

One is the day after the month of ramadan, we invite family and friends, give presents, cards, decorate and have a big meal etc. The Men go to a special prayer in the morning whilst women get ready. When they return we all greet eachother, say Eid Mubarak and party :P lol

The second Eid is sometime in November/December, on this one we sacrifice a goat, feed family friends and the poor with it. It's a similar type of festival, we just have a good time but keep on praying etc.

We know when these Eid's are at the sight of the moon. In urdu, we call this Chand raat, meaning The Moon night.

Hope that helped :)

Well, your special person doesn't seem to practice his religion very well, as having a significant other before marriage is forbidden.

Just tell him "Eid Mubarak" (Blessed Eid [festival]) and you might give him presents, yes.
