Narrating hadeeth with the meaning
I sometimes advise the others when they do a mistake clarifying the evidence from the authentic ahadeeth of the prophet .

Showing disrespect to Allaah, may He be glorified, by of joking
My question deals with a friend of mine who was ignorantly joking. When my friend was teased by another friend he ignorantly picked up his phone out of joking and said I have to tell Allah. Then he said on the phone "Hello, Allah" as to tell Allah. I know this is incorrect but is this shirk?
