Jokes that mock Paradise and Hellfire and God's creation are forbidden because they involve ridicule and mockery of religion. A servant must guard his tongue and strive to escape Hellfire and attain Paradise, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "And is there anything that throws people into the Hellfire on their faces—or he said, on their nostrils—except the harvests of their tongues?" And he said: "I have not seen anything like the Fire, whose fugitive sleeps, nor anything like Paradise, whose seeker sleeps."
