I see that the scholars quoted by the brothers have an agreement on this, so it must be the official position of the Madhab, in this case you need to follow it regardless of your opinion.

Their strongest argument would be to prove that belly rings are harmful to the body, and may likely cause infections, but i have no idea.

this fatwa is from a hanafi deobandi scholar as well.

Question:

Is it permissable for a woman to have her navel pierced just for the pleasure of her husband? What if she already has one, does that mean she has to remove it?

Answer:

It is permitted for a woman to have her navel pierced for her husband so long as women (pious practicing Muslim females) have adopted it by way of Urf or custom somewhere. It comes under beautification that the Shariah has allowed for women. There was a time when women never used to pierce their noses and it was not considered lawful for a woman to do so. Later, however, jurists such as Imam Ibn Aabideen, declared it permissable, on the basis that the custom or Urf of women in some Muslim lands in beautifying themselves was to do this, and thus it could be considered essentially the same as making a hole in the ear for earrings. Rad al-Muhtar, Kitab al-Hazr wal-Ibahah, vol.9 p.602.

The same is true it would seem for piercing the navel in our age. Having said this, one should also remember that, it will only be permitted with the condition the piercing is done without revealing one's awrah in front of those it is not lawful to.

Finally, it should also be noted, though piercing the navel is allowed with the above condition, the same is not the case for other parts of the body for several reasons, such as, no Urf being found for those parts, or it causes excessive harm to the female body, the issue of hygiene and resembling indecent lewd women.
