Q: Are tattoos allowed? Is it Makruh (disliked) or Haram (impermissible)? And what haadith can I read to find out more about it?
A.
The Hadeeth warns that the curse of Allah Ta'aala befalls a person who
tattoos others and the person who gets tattooed. (Aunul Ma'bood V9
P208). The threat of the curse of Allah for tattooing clearly expresses
the gravity of this sin. Due to this and other technical reasons,
tattooing is Haraam.
Allah Ta'aala knows best.
The
Ahaadeeth regarding this are recorded in many Hadeeth compilations: a)
An Nasa'i; b) Shu'abul Imaan of Imam Bayhaqi; c) Saheeh ibni Habbaan;
d) Bukhaari; e) Muslim, etc.
| Q: Can my mother and brother put in half and half money to do qurbani of 1 sheep?
A.
Two people in one sheep or in one portion of a cow, etc. is not
permissible. The way out is that both of them can pay for the sheep.
Thereafter one makes the other one the full owner of the sheep. Now the
Qurbani will be on either the name of the mother or brother, not both
together.
And Allah Ta'aala knows best.
