Abstract
Islam is a religion of peace, love and prosperity. It emphasis on moral values and strongly forbids from immoral acts. Commitment to the former is ultimate way to the paradise, while the latter leads to Hell, which is an abode, where deviants from the righteousness are punished for their misdeeds. The Holy Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) showed the importance of morality through the deeds and actions. “Ta┴riyā” is an act which is a part of morality. It is an act which escapes a human being from telling a lies strongly forbidden in Islam, being a root cause of manly social avoid. Usually“Ta┴riyā” is adopted so as to avoid differences and turmoil on a group of individuals. By“Ta┴riyā” means speaking a statement which is equivoques i. e. at the same it gives too meaning apparent and the hidden. Now the question arises whether “Ta┴riyā” is considered as lie or truth. It cannot be termed either lie or truth. However, in many traditions, it has been negated as a lie. At some occasions, when a person feels to tell a lie, for the sake of bringing peace, then it is advised than he should bring on use the act of “Ta┴riyā” but. The reality manipulated be in such a way so it could be termed as lie. Similarly, when life of a person is on danger, and when it could be averted by riding reality, then it is permissible in Islam to enact “Ta┴riyā”. “Ta┴riyā” is allowed but is not preferred to be exercised in usual circumstances. It is mentioned in Had┘th that “Ta┴riyā” provides a person with opportunity to award to fabricate and speak lies and committing the sin, he / she manages to achieve his objectives since “Ta┴riyā”. Holy Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) was humorous. However, he never mixed lies with truth for the sake of honor. In Islam every such humor, contaminated with lies forbidden. In Arabic language, any such joke which cause someone laugh and unused and that does not breach someone’s heart, or that does not hurt some ones respect, is termed as humor. Contrarily, any statement that hurt someone is called as normal vice.
