What is the ruling on celebrating Mother’s Day?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, a questioner asks: Is there a day called Mother’s Day, or is this a bid'ah (religious innovation)?

Answer:
There is no 'Id except 'Id al-Fitr and 'Id al-Adha. There is no 'Id in Islam except 'Id al-Fitr or 'Id al-Adha, and anything else is a bid'ah (religious innovation), and every bid'ah is misguidance.
