I am looking for a Arabic Tattoo to honor my mother and father?

Q. I am of Moroccan decent, so i would like to get a tattoo that is in arabic. I was first thinking of getting mother and father in arabic, plain and simple. However, i want it to have more meaning, maybe a phrase or quotation from the Quran . Or a symbol, i have checked online, but i always get different regions than my own. Can anyone help me please?

A. In Modern Moroccan culture, tattoos have a really bad connotation. It wasn't always like this, a lot of elderly women still have tattoos on their faces, hands and feet. I can't explain why this change occurred, but if i know my parents wouldn't even hear of it for example :)

Now, stay away from Quran verses, god's names, the prophet's sayings and the like. It's considered a blaspheme. You'll have Muslims of all nationalities coming to you asking why you did it, saying it's haram and feeling offended... i think it's not a desirable reaction to a tattoo, so please be careful, and avoid anything religious unless you want it to have this kind of reactions :)

I would advice you to pick a verse of classical Arabic poetry. It's not specific to Morocco but it's chic. If you want something really Moroccan, look for a song lyrics, and if your parents are Amazighs, maybe a berber poetry in Tifinagh script. I don't want to suggest something, because to honor your parents, this is something you most do by yourself. This alone will give it a deep meaning, along with you love and respect for them :)


How would you perceive an attractive female with a not so girly tattoo?
Q. but not manly at all! just not the average hearts, butterflies, all that unoriginal stuff (no offense they look cute and all!) haha

something alittle more. for example a tattoo like angelina's, megan fox's tats etc?

i personally love them and it makes them a little endearing and mysterious, its not something you'd expect from a pretty girl. makes her unique

def. badass! what do you guys think? just curious?

A. i personally think that not so feminine tattoos are hot on women, and all the guys ive dated would def. agree.

most of the guys ive dated or been interested in, ive met because they noticed my tattoos and were intrigued, which is not very common for pretty young girls to be very heavily tattooed. [i mean, two sleeves, full chest piece, feet, ribs, one calf, piece on the neck behind the ear.. pretty heavy]

i mean, you'll never be able to get EVERYONE you ask to agree that theyre hot or not, but from my experience and from people i know, heavy tattoos or not feminine tattoos on women are extremely hot.



at the same time, i do get weird looks, or ive had an old woman say to me "those are for ugly girls" or things like that. i do have people ask "why such a pretty young girl would do that to herself", so yes, there will always be haters. but get a tattoo for yourself, not for the rest of society!!

tattoos are also starting to be a lot more socially acceptable these days-- almost everyone, even a community's most-respected people, are getting tatted up now!
