HUMOROUS ANECDOTES VOLUME 1 FROM THE LIGHTER SIDE OF ISLAMIC HISTORY

 

It is proven from authentic hadiths that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) occasionally indulged in good light-hearted humour.

 

This compilation contain humorous anecdotes recorded in classical Arabic sources.

 

Ali ibn Abi Talib Radhi Allahu Anhu mentioned: ”Amuse the hearts and engage in some light-hearted wit because hearts tire as bodies do.”

 

Ibn al-Jawzi Rahimahullah mentioned: ”Ulama always expressed an interest in light-hearted humour and would lift the spirits of others because humour relaxes the soul and relieves the hearts of its burdens.”

 

Ata ibn Saib Rahimahullah narrates: "Said ibn Jubair Rahimahullah would narrate incidents reducing us to tears and at times he would not leave the gathering until he made us laugh."

 

 

In a time when gloom and despondency have widespread and many are at the throats of others Moulana Afzal's book, "Humorous Anecdotes" is indeed a breath of fresh air...I have read a substantial portion of this book and I know I will refer to it often again. Laughter is, after all, is the best medicine. I would recommend this book to everyone to remove the monotony and dullness which many of us face in life. - Moulana Hassen Dockrat, Jami'ah al-Uloom al-Islamiyyah, Fordsburg
