All about tattoo in Arabic

Arabic tattoos hold a special place in modern tattoo art... From the symbols and original inscriptions, the attractive East blows. Handwritten letters in Arabic look very impressive and attract attention. Meaningful texts can be expressed in a couple of words. These tattoos have recently been in great demand among both ordinary people and celebrities.

Arabic letters resemble hieroglyphs in their appearance. As a rule, for tattoos, it is customary to use the scriptures of Islamic peoples, which are called ALA. The shape used by the craftsmen was formed in the 17th century. It turns out that the Arabic language is the youngest. Before you get a tattoo in Arabic, you should know that it is read from right to left. This makes it similar to Chinese and Japanese. In total, there are 28 letters in the Arabic alphabet, of which 14 are long vowels, and the rest are consonants. Special vowel icons are used to mark short vowels.

The phrases that most often include tattoos are based on the handwritings "Naskh" and "Ruk" a ". The structure of the handwriting is of great importance for the Arabic writing. It is worth noting that the form of writing is aimed at sensory perception. The Islamic community is very conservative about tattoos. The views of Muslims are quite close to the worldview of the 19th century. According to orthodox Muslims, drawing on the body is a sin. Such prohibitions are explained by the scriptures that are in the Qur'an.

There are standards in Islam that do not allow the body to be changed. After all, this is regarded as interference with God's idea of ​​man. Various images on the skin that distort human nature are condemned by figures in the religious sphere. The dogmas reflect the idea that the body is the temple of the soul. However, despite such views, Muslim youth tattoo themselves. Boys and girls are not afraid of strict prohibitions and decorate bodies. New generations are not so conservative and are ready to consider Arab tattoos not a sin, but simply beautiful designs.

Before making tattoos with inscriptions, you should translate your favorite word or saying into Russian...
