The deceased''s gold tooth

Q 2: A man who had a gold tooth died; should this gold tooth be extracted or not?


A: The gold tooth may be pulled as long as it does not damage the surrounding teeth. This is to preserve wealth and in preference of it benefitting the living. If not, there is no harm leaving it. (Part No. 8; Page No. 357) May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
