TATTOO

Isn't it haraam in islam to get a tattoo. The reason why this question came to my mind is that when i saw the song YEH GHAR AAAP KA HUA by reema i saw her ankle and said to myself that is that mehendi or is it a TATTOO.

yep, it's true- tattoos are a big no-no in Islam.

"Tattooing is not permissible in Islam. Imam Bukhari (RA) has recorded a
Hadith in his Sahih on the authority of Sayyiduna Abdullah ibn Umar
(Radhiallaahu Anhu) that Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) cursed the
tattooist and the one who gets himself tattooed."

yeah i know and i think people who get tattoos are going to go to HELL/DAUZAGH whrn die. Why do such a thing when it's FORBIDDEN in ur culture.

i heard when u have a tattoo, wudhu nahi hota, just like having nail polish on... so if wuzu nahi hota, then u can't pray and if u cant pray.... well thats no good.....
so i guess some things may seem very very minor in the grand scheme of things but if you take it all seriously, and realize the larger consequences of it..even those small things (like nail polish and tattoos) will matter!

Hmmm.....sara that makes sense i always wondered why it was haram

well dnt we do things all the time that are haraam, its basically the same thing as putting make up on,

^ how is makeup equivalent to a tattoo? makeup washes off, and is only temporary...tattoo is permanent

it depends on the kind of tattoo your are getting

if you are getting tattoo the bubble gum one

or henna one then they are not (make sure its not showing X-rated or haram images

)
but if they are made using electrical machine then actually you are harming your body because the design is soldered

(that is why ppl say wow! who get tattoo, cuz its really painful)
