[5573] 120 - (2125) It was narrated that 'Abdullāh said: "May Allāh curse the one who does tattoos and the one who has a tattoo done, the Nāmiṣah and
the Mutanâmişah, and those have their teeth separated for the purpose of beautification, changing the creation of Allâh.” News of that reached a woman of Banû Asad who was called Umm Ya’qûb, who used to read the Qur’ân. She came to him and said: “What is this that I have heard about you cursing the one who does tattoos and the one who has a tattoo done, the Nâmişah and the Mutanâmişah, and those have their teeth separated for the purpose of beautification, changing the creation of Allâh?” ‘Abdullâh said: “Why should I not curse those whom the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ cursed, when it is in the Book of Allâh?” The woman said: “I have read the Muşhaf (the Noble Qur’ân) from cover to cover and I did not find it.” He said: “If you had read it you would have found it.” Allâh says: ‘And whatsoever the Messenger gives you, take it; and whatsoever he forbids you, abstain (from it).’[1] The woman said: “I think that I would see something of that on your wife now.” He said: “Go and look.” So she entered upon the wife of ‘Abdullâh and did not see anything. She came to him and said: “I did not see anything.” He said: “If that were the case, we would not live with her.”
