Question
Assalamoualaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu
Respected Ustadh,
My question is regarding writing proverb based upon the actual situation in my society or international.
Being a student of Jameah Mahmoodiyyah in Mauritius, i wrote the below sentence :
” If Ramadan would be a human being, he would cry and say : oh fellow muslim, stop making fun of me. You came regularly, you have honored me, you said you will be here to support muslim to bring change, you made so many criticism. But now i can’t find you but i see only my regularly muswalli “.
Is it wrong to write such phrase?
Answer
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
It is permissible to write such a phrase.[1]
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best

ومما يستثني: الكذب في الشعر ان لم يمكن حمله علي المبالغة كقوله: انا ادعوك ليلا ونهارا … لان غرض الشاعر الصناعة لا الصدق في شعره
