Men wearing precious accessories

Q: What is the ruling on men wearing jewelry and rings made of precious stones, such as platinum and silver? Do they take the ruling of gold or not?


A: Wearing rings made of silver or precious stones but not gold is permissible for men. It is authentically reported that the Prophet (peace be upon him) used to wear a silver ring.It is not permissible for men to wear gold rings, or wear any of the adornments of women, since the Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "(Wearing) gold and silk has been made lawful for the females of my Ummah (Nation) and unlawful for its males." The Prophet (peace be upon him) also "cursed the man who wears women’s clothing, (Part No. 24; Page No. 68) and the woman who wears men’s clothing." May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
