The ruling on wearing precious metals other than gold
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
or white, wearing watches and the like, this indicates fame and days.
Answer:
The default is permissibility, and the prohibition was only mentioned regarding gold. As for what is of precious metals, there is no harm in it, even if it is more expensive than gold. There are now precious metals that are more expensive than gold. These are permissible for men and others, because no prohibition has been reported regarding them, and the default is permissibility. And praise be to Allah. Yes.
Question:
And. That it be in this.
Answer:
It is not permissible to wear watches that contain silver; rather, what is permitted of silver is the ring and the like, such as the adornment of the belt and decorated weapons. As for the watch, no; the watch is, first of all, a recent matter that was not known in the past, so it should not contain any gold or silver. Yes. Is this considered extravagance? Yes.
