LOL= NO SOQ= YES

Rasulullah (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) was never reported to have laughed out loudly (LOL) even once. Whenever Rasulullah (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) found the need to express his happiness, he would smile out quietly (SOQ).

SubhanAllaah! Today we claim to love Rasulullah (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) more than any one else, but when we find the need to express our happiness in writing, all we end up doing is to write this absurdity in the likes of LOL (Laugh out loudly), which explicitly goes against the established sunnah of Rasulullah (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم).

Narrated 'A’isha (Radhi Allaahu ‘Anha): “I never saw Rasulullah (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) laughing loudly enough to enable me to see his uvula, but he used to smile only."

(Bukhari Book 60 Hadith 353)

Hence, rather than using LOL (Laugh out loudly), the sunnah way of expressing your joy in writing, is to use SOQ (Smile Out Quietly) :)
