Laughter, fun, and joking are permissible in Islam provided guidelines from Quran and Hadith are followed. For humour to be in accordance with Islam, the joke should not insult anyone, should not frighten anyone, should be within the limits of Islamic tolerance, should tell the truth, should not be offensive, should not contain unIslamic material or promote immorality and indecency. The Prophet Mohammed (p.b.u.h ) said: “Woe to the person who lies in his talking to make people laugh, woe to him, woe to him”.
