Assalamu-alaikum:
We ought not to forget what our Blessed Prophet has taught through his examples. Perhaps you may like to learn a bit more from the following URL excerpts of which, I have quoted below:
http://www.fiqh.net/Articles/RasulullahHumour.htm
Rasulullah is an example for the Muslim to follow in every aspect of life, as it is mentioned in the by Allah the Almighty in the Qur'an "In the Messenger of Allah is a good example for you to follow." [Qur'an Surah 33 Ayah 21]. Even in joking and having a good sense of humor Rasulullah has set an example for us. It is reported that the Prophet was asked by his companions: "You are joking with us." He said, "But I never say anything but the truth." [Authentically reported in Sahih Bukhari]
The Prophet used to joke, but he never said anything but the truth in his jokes. The Sahabah took the same approach to humor. There are many delightful reports about the jokes exchanged between the Prophet and the Sahabah.
