Does Laughing Invalidate Ablution? by Lukgaf(m): 8:14am On Jan 10, 2020
Praise be to Allah.

Firstly:

There is no difference of opinion among the scholars that laughing outside of prayer – even when one is getting ready for prayer – does not invalidate wudoo’.

Ibn al-Mundhir said: The scholars are unanimously agreed that laughing outside of prayer does not invalidate wudoo’ and does not require one to do wudoo’ again.

End quote from al-Awsat (1/166).

An-Nawawi said: They [the scholars] are unanimously agreed that laughing out loud outside of prayer does not invalidate wudoo’.

End quote from al-Majmoo‘ (2/61).

Secondly:

The scholars are unanimously agreed that laughing when praying invalidates the prayer.

Ibn al-Mundhir said: They are unanimously agreed that laughing when praying invalidates the prayer.

End quote from al-Ijmaa‘, p. 3.

What is meant by laughing here is laughing out loud

Ibn Qudaamah said: We do not know of any difference of opinion concerning that.

End quote from al-Mughni (2/451).

Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Laughing out loud, in which one makes a loud noise, is contrary to the dignity of prayer and to the focus and humility that is required in prayer. Moreover, it shows disrespect towards the prayer, makes a mockery of it and is contrary to its purpose, so the prayer is spoiled by that.

End quote from Majmoo‘ al-Fataawa (22/617).

Thirdly:

From the above, it is clear that the difference of opinion among the scholars has to do with laughing out loud in the prayer and whether wudoo’ is also invalidated by it, or not.

The correct view, which is that of the majority of scholars, is that it does not invalidate wudoo’, because there is no evidence to indicate that it does invalidate it.

Jaabir ibn ‘Abdillah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: If someone laughs whilst praying, he must repeat his prayer, but he does not have to repeat wudoo’. Narrated by al-Bukhaari in a mu‘allaq report, and by ad-Daaraqutni (51) in a mawsool report.

Ibn Hajar said: It is proven to be saheeh, but it is the words of Jaabir. End quote from Fath al-Baari (1/280).

Shaykh al-Islam said: There is no narration from any Sahaabi to suggest a different view. Moreover, it does not invalidate wudoo’ outside of prayer, so by the same token [it does not invalidate wudoo’] in the prayer.

End quote from Sharh al-‘Umdah (1/324).

An-Nawawi said: Our view and that of the majority of scholars is that it does not invalidate wudoo’. … This is the view of the majority of the Taabi‘een and those who came after them.

Al-Bayhaqi narrated that Abu’z-Zinaad said: I met some of our well-versed scholars whose view is decisive: Sa‘eed ibn al-Musayyab, ‘Urwah ibn az-Zubayr, al-Qaasim ibn Muhammad, Abu Bakr ibn ‘Abd ar-Rahmaan, Khaarijah ibn Zayd ibn Thaabit, ‘Ubaydullah ibn ‘Abdillah ibn ‘Uqbah, Sulaymaan ibn Yasaar, and many other respectable scholars, who say that laughing invalidates the prayer, but it does not invalidate wudoo’.

And he said: There is no proof at all to suggest that wudoo’ is invalidated by laughing.

End quote from al-Majmoo‘ (2/60).

The hadiths which say that laughing invalidates wudoo’ are da‘eef (weak) and none of them are saheeh (sound).

An-Nawawi said:

All of them are da‘eef and waahin (flimsy), according to the consensus of the scholars of hadith.

End quote from al-Majmoo‘ (2/61).

Summary: laughing does not invalidate wudoo’, whether that happens when praying or outside of prayer.

And Allah knows best.

If someone is praying in the mosque and suddenly starts laughing.

Isn't that a sign of madness?

Allah is an Arabic word meaning God. Even Christian Arabs uses the word Allah when referring to God. All languages have ways the refer to Allah.

Please be mindful on how you discredit the name of God just because of Nairaland likes.

If you've problem that Muhammad married wives then what'd you say about Solomon.

Your second question, the twelve grown men were Jesus disciples that followed him for evangelism.

Patience is one of the most beautiful attributes one can ever have, it makes one listen, understand, forgive, forget, endure & move on in life.
May Almighty Allah SWT increase Our patience, forgive all Our sins, open all the channels of success, progress & blessings for us Fidduniya Wal-Akhira.

What an ex-muslim from Egypt posted on YouTube:

"The Muslim is the only one who needs a fatwa for what side of the bed he wakes up from. He must pray before putting on his shoes and he must always wear his right shoe first. He must pray a special prayer before entering his toilet and another special prayer while sitting on his toilet otherwise the Jinn and Sheitan will disturb him. He must make sure his buttocks are not pointed in the direction of the Quibla (Mecca) when he is in the toilet. He must wash his p*nis and shake it 3 times after urinating and he must try to urinate while stopping like a woman."

Actually, we should thank that man/woman for the compliments. cool

Islam ties us to our Creator and Lord because worship is the primary reason why we're in this world. Every other thing we're doing are distractions (or at best means to worship).
