Mimicking people and imitating their words or actions as a form of mockery is a blameworthy act that a Muslim is not permitted to do, because of the Prophet's (peace be upon him) saying to Aisha when she mimicked a person to him: "I would not like that I mimicked a person even if I were given such and such." A Muslim must safeguard their tongue.
