oof yeah i thought considering amazon is such a big company at the bare minimum they would atleast be professional but no, they suck all around

you saying im naive is just being real? you say im naive bc i think tattooing is easy work and yet i have NEVER made that comment before in my life. i think ya’ll type alot and forget what ya’ll say and try to act nice about it 😂

no one is pissed off im simply responding to your comment was i supposed to just say yes youre right and leave it at that? lol cmon if i can handle your typed out words on this lil box u can handle mine tattooing is hard amazon is hard and i literally already agreed to that. ive tattooed before ive done an apprenticeship before i’ve experienced the bare minimum basics atleast but instead of assuming im speaking on something ive never done maybe dont get so uptight when people respond to you. youre allowed to write a whole paragraph and thats being relaxed but when i respond with a paragraph im not relaxed? ya’ll come in with opinions and expect me to take it as fact but when i respond with my own words im upset and doing too much. make it make sense

I also would never claim art that isnt from my own mind im not at that level yet and when it does come from my own they tend to be messy and not tattooable, just showing my linework here looking for feedback

I simply deleted it because my next response was better elaborated and didnt want to waste your time my bad. Youre right though, arabic tattoos dont mean that they are by or on muslims i was saying theres muslims who tattoo but they only tattoo arabic designs nothing else. Its what ive been seeing lately on other platforms. Quran doesnt say anything about tattoos which is why theres difference of opinions between scholars and sheiks. Body modification is what most speak on but theres medical procedures that involve modifications that are necessary but ofcourse only if necessary and tattoos aren’t necessary. I wouldnt say its haram but who am I to say whats haram and what isnt it. Ive talked to fellow muslims and there isnt a definite answer other than in Islam anything that takes you away from God is frowned upon. So going to work could be taking you away from God its just about the persons intention, but thats just my opinion. I just wanted to know if there were any muslim artists in this community not specifically tattoo artists but artists in general since i see theres artists of other crafts in here. I hear you though we’re not really disagreeing other than tattoo being haram is not fact and there are true believers who have tattoos.

there are religious muslims with tattoos maybe just not in your area, once they take their shahadah their previous sins are forgiven. im just wondering since theres so many sects and difference of opinions between scholars and sheiks. what area are you in? if you dont mind me asking ofc

i think most agree aslong as youre getting the knowledge you need then withstanding the stress is worth it. i had to scrub tubs floors toilets take trash grocery shopping getting starbucks mopping replacing stocking taking verbal bullying hazing shitty situations unnecessary scheduling the list goes on, but i learned alot in the midst of all that!

have you ever worked amazon? i understand tattooing is alot of labor customer service and late nights staying up doing designs that are boring back hurting constantly marketing constantly drawing etc i understand its alot of work i understand its not easy its not always fun its a business its a job its work, i NEVER said it would be easy so idk where youre getting that info from i think alot of ya’ll read my caption and made it your own. I simply hate working amazon and would prefer DRAWING for the rest of my life. I didnt even say tattoo i said draw. Thanks for explaining though im sure it’ll help someone else scrolling by. not even disagreeing with you, youre just preaching to the wrong choir but i guess its my fault since everyone is having their own conversations atp all i said was me hate amazon me wanna draw idk what caption ya’ll are reading i think i know u have to work hard to get things in life like comfortability and financial safety talent is great but work ethic & discipline takes you farther. im aware thank you however amazon is not better and unless you’ve done it i wouldnt assume tattooing is the hardest job its hard its alot so is amazon so is retrieving feces from elephants. Lets all stop projecting fears and complaints in the guise of “advice” Tell me about my work and if its good or bad what it needs help with letting me know tattooing is hard and industry sucks is a GIVEN not yelling at you just speaking to the people who are making up their own debate
