5931. Narrated 'Abdullāh رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: Allāh has cursed those women who practise tattooing and those who get themselves tattooed, and those who remove their face hairs, and those who create space between their teeth artificially to look beautiful, as such women alter the features created by Allāh تعالى. Why then should I not curse those whom the Prophet ﷺ has cursed? And that is in Allāh's Book, i.e. His saying: "And whatsoever the Messenger (Muḥammad ﷺ) gives you take it.. (up to).. you abstain (from it)." (V.59:7)

Arabic text

5931 - حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ، قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ: «لَعَنَ اللَّهُ الوَاشِمَاتِ وَالمُسْتَوْشِمَاتِ، وَالمُتَنَمِّصَاتِ، وَالمُتَفَلِّجَاتِ لِلْحُسْنِ، المُغَيِّرَاتِ خَلْقَ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى» مَالِي لاَ أَلْعَنُ مَنْ لَعَنَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَهُوَ فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ: {وَمَا آتَاكُمُ الرَّسُولُ فَخُذُوهُ} [الحشر: 7]
