"April Fool" and "the right to remain silent"

In some foreign countries – kaafir countries – there is the well-known custom of April Fool, which happens of the first day of April. Some Muslims are imitating them in this, thinking that it is permissible to tell lies on this day… what is your opinion on this belief and on this custom?

Praise be to Allaah.

Lying is not permissible at all, at any time. And it is not permissible to imitate the kuffaar and to be like them, on this day or on any other, because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Whoever imitates a people is one of them.” ISLAM QA

From the fatwaas of Shaykh Saalih Fawzaan in al-Shaqaa’iq magazine, no. 32, Safar

  2. wrong! USA maybe a predominantly kaafir country for us but they are secular... meaning they do not subscribe to any particular religion. Now its ignorance to say kaafirs developed this or that. That this or that is referring to a vast amount of equipments and infrastructure which are very complex and a combination of a multitude of devices and technologies. So the kaafirs did not develop the 'network'. The network is not like a small fishing net. its created by many many ppl of many many beliefs. the underlying structure of a network is not belief but technology. Now don't try to say technology was invented by kaafirs... same goes for servers, hubs, switches, protocols etc...
