:wasalamfull:

sister regarding jokes, what is forbidden in Islam is backbiting, mocking/insulting teachings of Islam or people, or lying to make people laugh. This was discussed a while ago here. If you find anything in jokes' section which goes against permissible joking in Islam, then please do report that post and we'll do something about it, insha'Allah.

After I checked this thread.....I went and searched for this thing as it started worrying me, because if we think about it, some jokes are just imaginable stories which mean things that not really happened but some people wrote them or think about them and spread them among the others to make them laugh.
this is worry me, its as if we are telling lies. If something funny really happened then there is no problem of telling it if it will not hurt any one.

I found this fatwa by Shiekh Ibn Bazz

Quote:

Ruling on joking in Islam

What is the ruling on joking in our Islamic religion? Is it among the idle speech, knowing that it is not making fun of the religion? Please advise us, may Allaah reward you.

Praise be to Allaah. There is nothing wrong with humorous talk and joking, if it is truthful, especially if it is not done a great deal. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to joke but he never said anything but that which was true. But if it involves telling lies, then it is not permissible, because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Woe to the one who speaks and lies in order to make people laugh; woe to him, woe to him.” Narrated by Abu Dawood, al-Tirmidhi and al-Nasaa’i with a jayyid isnaad. And Allaah is the Source of strength.

Majmoo’ Fataawa wa Maqaalaat Li’l-Shaykh Ibn Baaz, 6/391

Someone explain the above fatwa please, what is the meaning of that fatwa? can we still consider jokes which are telling stories that not really happened as lies??

jazakum Allah khair
