The Ruling on Cultural Weeks, Such as Tree Week and the Passing Week

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: What is the ruling on the cultural weeks currently being held, such as the Tree Week and Traffic Week, and so on? Is there any sin on the one who participates in them?

Answer:
Muslims are required to work every year; they are required to plant trees, they are required to care for traffic, and to organize traffic every year, and in all their needs. However, designating a specific week for these works is a matter of customs. It is not permissible to do this, nor to participate in it.
