Laughing at the manner a person was reciting the Hadith

Submitted by user2 on Sat, 2017-10-28 06:21

Q: A man was reading a hadith in a wierd way so I was laughing when he was reading the hadith even while he said "Rasulullah (Sallalahu alayhi wasallam)" and even laughed when I was saying sallalahu alayhi wasallam. Did I do something that removed me from the fold of Islam?

A: If you did not laugh at the hadeeth itself rather at the way he was expressing himself then this is not kufr. However, a lot of precaution is required in this regard. The slightest disregard and disrespect to Nabi's (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam's) personality and teachings is extremely detrimental.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
