Quote
If you abide by the Qur'an you cannot say that music is unlawful, you cannot say that paintings, sculptures, having fun and laughing are unlawful; but if you are in a radical conservative system, music, paintings and sculptures are all unlawful.

Competition is something our Prophet (saas) sees as acceptable; it is something religion considers as acceptable. It is also seen in Heaven. Muslims will have fun racing each other. They will have motor races, boat races to have fun, or have footraces or horse races.

Religion is a system that gathers all the beauties of the world inside. There is joy in religion, there is merriness, there is fun, there is music in religion. Ladies can wander around comfortably, they can wear revealing clothes if they like and cover their heads if they like; no one interferes them. They can laugh as they like, they can have tattoos if they like. Religion would not interfere with such things. Religion commands us to have a good conscience and be conscientious, to be honest, to be reasonable, to be meticulous about what is lawful and what is not. Religion is the other name of joy.

Some people believe that it is not possible to think about God while having fun. For instance, when one goes to a wedding or a disco, or when one listens to music on the radio, they believe that God should be forgotten to do so. That is very wrong.

Islam prevails everywhere. One can mention the Name of God while having fun or in a wedding. There is no such thing as saying one cannot talk about God in a place of entertainment. This is the result of a mindset that tries to spread irreligiousness presenting it as if it is something in demand. That is because people are very fond of music and entertainment. These people say “Do not talk about God when there is music and entertainment. Simply keep quiet.” Irreligiousness is the result of such a mentality.

Quote
Within the course of world history, they [bigots] have generally turned this world into a living hell for women. When born a woman, she doesn’t have the opportunity to have fun, to wear what she likes or to dress up. Loving and being loved is forbidden, being joyous is forbidden, everything is forbidden for them. Let them have fun, let them be joyous and wear whatever they like. Leave them alone so that they can live in peace.

Banning ladies having fun is like uprooting an essential beauty out of this world. Women are the most important ornaments of the world. If women have fun, if they are happy, if they are cheerful, if they are able to show their beauty, it would be great.

We are not fond of having fun. We are not after comfort. Before all else, Allah, religion and homeland is important for us.

Prayer(salat) is a demonstration of joy, a way of thanking. Invoking the name of Allah is a way of thanking. Eating dinner with Muslims is a way of thanking, it is a beauty. We are having fun that is a beauty as well.
Quote
Having fun is not illegitimate or unlawful by religion, it is perfectly permissible.

Religion would not prevail through bigotry. People ask me; "Why are you cheerful? Why is there music in your programs? Why do you use pictures? Why do you have fun?" Religion would not prevail any other way.

We carry the Qur'an in our hearts. We live with the Qur'an. The mindset which demands that there should be no fun around the Qur'an is a very wrongful mindset. There is joy, happiness and elation around the Qur'an.

Almighty Allah wants us to have fun. Our Prophet (saas) has the hadith in which he encourages making jokes. There are hadith related to jokes. Make jokes, but why do you involve the hereafter and angels? This is indeed very bad.
