Answer
- حامداومصلياومسلما، بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم -
It is permissible to joke with children from time to time. It's an admirable work. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) himself used to do this many times. However, it is not good to make excessive laughter or jokes. And according to many, it is haraam to talk and gossip in the mosque. And some call it Makrooh. However, it is not possible to issue a fatwa on this subject as it does not explicitly mention what kind of worldly speech the Imam has spoken. 1562428939
