Narrated Humaid bin 'Abdur-Rahman bin 'Auf,
that in the year he performed Hajj, he heard Mu'awiya bin Abi Sufyan, who was on the pulpit and was taking a tuft of hair from one of his guards, saying, "Where are your religious learned men? I heard Allah's Apostle forbidding this (false hair) and saying, 'The children of Israel were destroyed when their women started using this.'" Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet said, "Allah has cursed the lady who artificially lengthens (her or someone else's) hair and the one who gets her hair lengthened and the One who tattoos (herself or someone else) and the one who gets herself tattooed" Bukhari, Volume 7, Book 72, Number 816
if u did it before then dont stress it, just dont get one while you are muslim i think is whats stressed, and removing it is very expensive, painful and can cause a scar far more noticable then the tatoo, just ignore it.
why is tatoo haram, what if its just like a symbol! arent you allowed it!
Tattoos are haram for they represent an icon or are symbolic, other Muslims don't usually take kind to other Muslims with tatoos. You should try to get rid of it.
If its going to cause you further pain and mutilate your body even more than now AND if going to be very expensive, why bother? You have repented right? Allah is merciful. You will be forgiven for the acts of ignorance you performed before (i take it you reverted to islam recenlty?) you became a Muslim.. or as you might put it: became enlightened.

I understand it is painful but it is generally not accepted in Islamic society. One who possesses a tattoo could run the risk of being labelled as a takfir by other Muslims due to perceptions because not all can possibliy be aware that he repented. So what is the main concern with this issue is not how Allah (stw) will judge the person since he repented but how the Muslim society will judge him. It is of lesser importance I agree, but people judge on perceptions.

He could wear clothes to cover the tattoo so it could not be seen in public.
Are you allowed to have tatoos which represent Islam?
I often see Christian tatoos.
No tattoos of any kind, especially tattoos representing Islam. Unlike Christianity, in Islam-religious iconic images especially those inked on the skin are forbidden. Although some Muslims have been known to possess some but it is highly not recommended , especially when one lives in a society governed by the Sharia (Islamic law).

the reason why, islamic tattoos r propa propa forbidden is cos when you go toilet, its disrespectful, to have Allah (swt) on ur arm and you take that in the toilet with you, so nope islamic ones aint allowed!

"they ask you when will the help of Allah (swt) come! Certainly Allah (Swt) help is always near"
what about henna? it disappears in a few weeks but it is also considered body art. does anyone know the ruling of using henna for beautification on the hands and feet?
The answers have helped me, even though I myself am a bit frustrated over having it on my upper arm, I pray that Allah gives us all rizq, for me mainly to be able to afford a laserremoval inshaALLAH.
