while the intellect is absent





It's sad, to see a lot of Muslims having tattoos, especially the young ones. You want a tattoo? We have tattoos in Islam, but they are temporary. It's called henna. If you're young, 16-17 [saying] "I want a tattoo!" - just go put a temporary one on there. It will wear off by the time your intellect comes back to you.

From your profile I understand you are in Sigapore. Is tattoo noticeably common in Singapore?. The skill in making tattoo may not be common among Malays so rural Malays are likely more keen to use inai. Itai trees are common as well, one is somewhere in the ground of our house.

Would you email almanar@pd.jaring.my so that I can seek to find answers to certain questions on education/ schools and books used in Singapore schools?
