Tattoo prohibition in religion
Religious perspectives on tattoo .The most spread religions in the world are antagonistic to tattoos.
Islam. All of the kinds of tattoo are considered forbidden in Sunni Islam. Sunni Muslims believe tattooing is forbidden and a sin because it involves changing the creation of God (Surah 4 Verse 117-120).
However, the use of temporary tattoos made with henna is very common and is considered permissible in Muslim Morocco and other predominantly Muslim nations such as Bangladesh, Indonesia and Malaysia. Permanent tattoos are forbidden in Sunni Islam, though in Shia Islam they are debated.
And if to talk about changing of God creation, I myself would add that earrings and plucking eyebrows apply to this issue as well. But nobody reacts to them as they do to tattoo.
Judaism. Tattoos are forbidden in Judaism based on the Torah, the holy book of Jews (Leviticus 19:28): "You shall not make gashes in your flesh for the dead, or incise any marks on yourselves: I am the Lord." The prohibition is explained by a general prohibition on body modification that does not serve a medical purpose (such as to correct a deformity).It is explained as the prohibition against tattoos as a Jewish response to paganism. Since it was common practice for ancient pagans to tattoo themselves with names of gods, Judaism prohibited tattoos entirely in order to disassociate from other religions.
