basically i just want to know if its really bid'ah bid'ah, or if its just not sunnah. meaning: will you be sinning (guilty of doing bid'ah) if you exchange gifts with your family and friend's on this day?

"Some traditions signify another feature of the day of 'Ashura. According to these traditions, one should be more generous to his family by providing more food to them on this day as compared to other days. These traditions are not very authentic according to the science of Hadith. Yet, some Scholars like Baihaqi and Ibn Hibban have accepted them as reliable."

"Some people take it as Sunnah to prepare a particular type of meal on the day of 'Ashura'. This practice, too, has no basis in the authentic Islamic sources."
