Question

i have read your explanation about having a tatoo being haraam but what abt a temporary one? My husbad wants me to get a temporary tatoo of a butterfly, he would be the only one who would see it . would be something like a sticker, i want to know if this would be permissable?

Answer

This would not be permissible.

The reasons could be many, a) It is still a tattoo, b) It is a picture of an animate object which is been prohibited in Shari?ah, and c) It is a resemblance of the style of Kuffaar.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
