5946. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: A woman who used to practise tattooing was brought to 'Umar. 'Umar got up and said, "I beseech you by Allāh, which of you heard the Prophet ﷺ saying something about tattooing?" I got up and said, "O chief of the believers! I heard something." He said, "What did you hear?" I said, "I heard the Prophet ﷺ (addressing the ladies) saying, 'Do not practise tattooing and do not get yourselves tattooed.'"

5946 - حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ عُمَارَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي زُرْعَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: أُتِيَ عُمَرُ بِامْرَأَةٍ تَشِمُ، فَقَامَ فَقَالَ: أَنْشُدُكُمْ بِاللَّهِ، مَنْ سَمِعَ مِنَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الوَشْمِ؟ فَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ: فَقُمْتُ فَقُلْتُ: يَا أَمِيرَ المُؤْمِنِينَ أَنَا سَمِعْتُ، قَالَ: مَا سَمِعْتَ؟ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «لاَ تَشِمْنَ وَلاَ تَسْتَوْشِمْنَ»
