My best friend was a shia and married a sunni, she embraced islam right away and became a sunni. But since her husband isn't a practicing muslim, she is not either. Recently she got a tattoo done. Now, I have read that tattoo is haraam (I believe it's a hadith from Bukhari). I have tried to advise her previously on her choice of outfits which are very revealing and she doesn't like anybody telling her anything about deen.

Now, my question here is, is it advisable to point out about the tattoo being haraam to her, or should I just ignore it because she isn't a practicing muslim anyway, also she won't like me telling her about it either?

Maybe it would me more wise to stress on basic pillars of Islam first, like Salah, fasting etc.

Try to get her to fast and pray. Then the rest will fall in place . This is my personal opinion on the matter.

Salam u alaikum Sister,

You can point her out about tatoos being Haram so InshAllah in future she doesnt make this mistake. But also tell her that if she does tauba then InshAllah Allah will forgive her sin.But make sure you do it in the best and the most polite manners. And if she doesnt agree after showing her the proofs, then leave her case to Allah cause your job is done and make dwa for her. But yes being her friend you can point her out, but definitely in the best possible and polite manner, Cause in the end we hate the action not the person himself. Also take advise from Senior members and ulema how to discharge the duty of enjoining good and forbidding evil to close family and friends.

Tell her to listen to the bayans here.

everybody for taking the time to help me. InshaAllah, I will approach her politely and extend dawah. Such situations are very sticky, we care for our friends but they think we are being nosy.

May Allah guide her and me and everybody to the straight path.
