Is it permissible to wear a bisht whose buttons or edges are made of silver and gold?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible to wear a bisht whose buttons or edges are made of silver and gold?

Answer:
If it is a small amount, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) granted a dispensation regarding the embroidery, meaning the decorative stitching. He granted a dispensation for embroidery of silk, which is the stitching found on the cuffs or the pocket, if it is the width of three or four fingers or less. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) granted a dispensation for it. The same applies to zari, which is gold water. Gold water is permissible as long as it is not silk embroidery; this is like it. Also, nothing is obtained from it; if one were to extract what is obtained from it, it would be gold, but it is only gold water or just the shine of gold.
