According to the dictionary, April Fools’ Day is a day for practical jokes, but in many places those jokes take the form of lies.Bad Ima!
Islam condemns lying. Good people in general consider it a vice. If lying is originally forbidden, then April Fools’ would consequently be forbidden because of the unwarranted dismay and chagrin it causes, even if it is for just one hour. It plays with people’s trust, and is a pure emulation of vice.
