The word tattoo is traced to the Tahitian, tatu or tatau, simply meaning to mark or to strike. A tattoo is a design or marking made by the insertion of a pigment into punctures or cuts to the skin. Tattoos are a type of body modification and this is not allowed in Islam.

Tattooing, in which the skin is pierced with a needle and a blue or other coloured dye is injected, is Haraam in all forms, whether it causes pain or not, because it involves changing the creation of Allah Taa'la, and because the Holy Prophet Hadhrat Muhammad- ur Rasullullaah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) cursed the one who does tattoos and the one for whom tattooing is done. In the same way, Shari'ah (Islamic laws) warns against Muslah (disfiguring) of the body, as well as "unnecessary intrusion, alteration and defacement of Allah Taa'la's creation".

The Holy Qur'an considers such alterations as inspired by (shaytaan) Satan, who "...will command them (his devotees) to change what Allah (Taa'la) has created..." (Holy Qur'an: An-Nisa': 119) The Holy Prophet Hadhrat Muhammad- ur Rasullullaah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) banned many cultural practices of the time. Hadhrat Abu Hurairah (Radi Allah Anho) says that Hadhrat Muhammad- ur Rasullullaah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) forbade tattooing. (Al Bukhaari) However, there is some difference of opinion by the Ulama (Islamic scholars) as to the reason why tattoos are forbidden, although all are unanimous that it is Haraam.

It is said that it is because they are a form of deception and because it is a way of changing the creation of Allah Taa'la. It is also suggested that what is forbidden is only that which is permanent, because that is changing the creation of Allah Taa'la; as for that which is not permanent, such as kohl (in Arabic means to "brighten the eyes" and is a mixture of soot and other ingredients, used by and other women and, to a lesser extent, men to darken the eyelids) which is used for adornment by women is permitted by the scholars. (Tafseer al-Qurtubi, 5: 393). Even some Christians and Jews believe Leviticus 19:28 (Leviticus is the third book of the Hebrew Bible and also the third book in the Torah) prohibits believers from getting tattoos. It says, "Do not cut your bodies for the dead nor put marks upon you." Be part of the Holy Prophet's Sunnah and NOT part of your friend's group, Munir Khan.

[Kamal35]

It's haram. Everything is haram: tattoo, music, dance, having fun, dating, discos, rock and roll.

Why ask?

[Gedo_Boy]

Let's forget about if it is haram or not. Let's ask if it is the wise decision.

Remember, a tattoo is permanent, you don't get a 2nd chance. Don't rush into getting a tattoo just like you wouldn't rush into getting plastic surgery.

What if what you want to tattoo seems really cool to you right now, but in 10-15 years your symbol might have a totally different meaning. Imagine if I really liked Lucky Charms cereal or Starburst Fruit chew candy when I was a kid and I decided to tattoo 2 bright rainbows on each of my biceps.

Wouldn't that be miserable?

So, the moral of the story is: Don't get a tattoo because the symbol could have a totally different meaning in 15 years and you don't wanna look stupid for the rest of your life.

Gedo: A man decided to tattoo his pennis. Then, he went to a bar and asked for some whiskey. A girl started talking to him and, finally, both went to bed. When they were naking themselves, the girl saw his pennis and something written on it. "What's that?", she asked. "A tattoo", he replied. She started looking at the tattoo in his pennis and said: "But you wrote there SO...". "Yeah", the man replied. "So your pennis is not that big if you can only write 'SO' on it", the girl complained.

"Well", the man replied. "Wait until the old ceeb starts to grow...Actually, what is written down there is 'SUPERCALIFRASGILISTOCOESPIALIDOSO"...

What I want to know is how could he have an erection when the (most likely male) tattoo artist had his penis in one hand and a needle in the other.

Good one, Gedo Boy!

Nayaa, dont get it. PERIOD!! Its a proven fact that once you get a tattoo you will desire a second one, a third etc. Besides, imagine how unattractive it will look on your body when you hit 40 or so. All wrinkly and stuff...ewwww. Tattoo are haraam anyway and a major TURN OFF both on men and females.


JUST FORGET ABOUT IT.
