Adnan Oktar
(Harun Yahya)

Prophet (pbuh) and his Companions acted in a manner compat-
ible with this spirit of the Qur'an and experienced the joy and
happiness bestowed by faith:

A'isha (ra) said that she accompanied the Prophet (pbuh) on a
certain journey. The Prophet (pbuh) asked the people to move

on, and they marched ahead. Then the Prophet (pbuh) said to
her, "Come on, let us have a race." A'isha says that she ran and
remained much ahead of him. The Prophet (pbuh) kept quiet for
some time. … Again she accompanied the Prophet (pbuh) on
some journey. The Prophet (pbuh) again asked the people to
march ahead, and they moved ahead. Then the Prophet (pbuh)
again asked her to have a race with him. This time the Prophet
(pbuh) defeated her and she lagged behind. Now the Prophet
(pbuh) laughed and said, "This is in reply to our previous
defeat." (Ahmad, Safwat as-Safwah, vol. I, p. 68)

Abu Osama said he used to joke with him. (Sunan Abu Dawud;

at-Tirmidhi)

Abu Hurayra (ra) said, the Prophet (pbuh) would protrude his
tongue to al-Husain ibn Ali who in turn would wriggle with joy
when he saw it.

Abdullah bin Haris said that he had not seen anyone else who
was more humorous than the Messenger of God (pbuh).

When some of his companions said to Prophet Muhammad
(pbuh): "O Prophet Muhammad, you also joke with us!" He
replied: "Yes, I do. But I only tell the truth." (at-Tirmidhi)

'Anas (ra) said that someone asked him if the Prophet (pbuh)
made jovial remarks. Ibn 'Abbas replied in the affirmative. (Ibn
Asakir and al Kanz Vol IV p. 43)

'Anas (ra) said: "The Messenger of God (pbuh) was the nicest
and the most humorous of people."
