Growing a new tree.
خلفية ثقافية
The 'Billion Tree Tsunami' project in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and the later 'Ten Billion Tree Tsunami' nationwide have made tree planting a symbol of civic duty and environmental pride. Planting a tree is considered 'Sadqah Jariyah' (ongoing charity). It is believed that the planter receives rewards as long as any living being benefits from the tree. The 'Saaya' (shade) of a tree is a common metaphor for the protection of a father or an elder. Planting a tree is seen as providing protection for the future. In crowded cities like Karachi, Lahore, or Delhi, 'Darakht Lagana' is often a community effort to combat the 'Urban Heat Island' effect.
Monsoon Season
In Pakistan, the best time to 'darakht lagana' is during the Monsoon (July-August).
Verb Agreement
Remember that in the past tense, 'lagaya' changes to 'lagaye' if you plant more than one tree.
