Joking about things that relate to one's Islamic beliefs
Question
If a Muslim mocks or jokes about a depiction of an angel like in a TV show saying for example it looks like something from a video game, is it kufr in any way?
Answer
One should never joke about things which relate to one's Islamic beliefs (angels, etc.). Through this, one can risk one's imaan.
Apart from this, looking at a TV show and then giving wrong resemblances compounds this sin and evil.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
