It is advisable to disregard whispers related to ridiculing the Arabic language. If the ridicule is because it is the language of the Quran or a symbol of the rituals of Islam, then that is considered apostasy. However, laughing at someone who makes mistakes in classical Arabic or overdoes it is not considered ridicule that reaches the degree of apostasy.
