Islam forbids lying even in jest and it forbids frightening a Muslim whether in seriousness or in jest, in words or in actions. Abu Umamah Al-Bahili (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, I guarantee a home in the middle of Jannah for one who abandons lying even if its just for the sake of fun (Hadith-Abu Dawud). It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah(RA) that the Messenger of Allah(peace be upon) said: The signs of the hypocrite are three: when he speaks, he lies; when he makes a promise, he breaks it; and when he is entrusted with something, he betrays that trust. (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 33; Muslim, 59) Hazrat Wasilah reported that the Messenger of Allah(peace be upon) said: Do not display pleasure at your brothers misfortune. (Hadith-Tirmizi) It was narrated that Abu Hurayrah(RA) said: They said, O Messenger of Allaah, you joke with us. He said, But I only speak the truth. (Hadith narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 1990) The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Whoever imitates a people is one of them. (Hadith narrated by Ahmad) It was narrated by Muaawiyah ibn Haydah that he heard the Prophet (pbuh) say: Woe to the one who talks to make the people laugh and tells lies, woe to him, woe to him. (narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 235. He said: this is a hasan hadeeth. Also narrated by Abu Dawood, 4990). It was narrated by Asmaa´ bint Yazeed that the Messenger of Allaah (pbuh) said: It is not permissible to tell lies except in three (cases): when a man speaks to his wife in a way to please her; lying in war; and lying in order to reconcile between people. (Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 1939) When our Muslim Ummah is being disgraced and humiliated by the Kuffaar from East to West, how is it possible for a believer with even a minute degree of Imaan(faith) to engage in this evil custom of April Fools Day!
