Hasan al-Basri (rahimaullah) was an eminent scholar and pious
individual of his time. He would rarely laugh due to his remembrance
of death and the punishment of hell. One day he was going somewhere
when he saw a young man indugled in laughter. Hasan al-Basri asked the
youth, "Young man, have you already crossed the bridge of Sirath? Have
you alreadyfound out whether you are going to paradise or hell?" The
young man replied, "No." Hasan al-Basri told him, "Then why are you
laughing somuch?" After that, no one saw this young man laughing again
as he came to know the realityof this life.

Abul Laith Samarkandi.
Many hours or probably days have passed away from our lives in
laughter and jokes. It is a sign that we have forgotten the life of
the hereafter. The sahabah used to do good deeds all day but still cry
during the night to Allah. On the other hand,we do sins all day and
still have no concerns! It is permissible to laugh atamazing things
and smile while being in company of others.

*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -*
-
Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-
