Summary
Mimicking or mocking the hadith of the Prophet SAW is forbidden and counts as a major sin. It can also lead the person to disbelief. Every Muslim is obliged to honour the Messenger SAW and defend his sunnah, and the fatwa refers readers to Imam al-Nawawi's Bustan al-Arifin on this matter.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Haram dan berdosa besar pelakunya. Dan boleh membawa pelakunya kepada kufur.
