Question I just want to know the reason why tattoos are haraam in Islam.

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Tafseer Raheemi

Question

I just want to know the reason why tattoos are haraam in Islam.

Answer

When Shaytaan was thrown out of Jannah, he portrayed open hostility towards Adam alayhis-salaam and his children.  He took an oath to mislead them and among the vows he made, he said “I will instruct them to change the way Allah created them,” so making tattoos is also part of Shaytaan’s scheme of making people unhappy with the way Allah created them and ordering them to mess around with their bodies – plus when making tattoos, blood comes out and then that blood is somehow pushed back into the body and colour is filled in its place.

This answer was collected from Tafseer-Raheemi.com the official website of Sheikh Abdul Raheem Limbada (Hafizahullah) of UK.
