Question:
He asks: What is the ruling on gold rings for women’s adornment, and is there zakah on them?
Answer:
It is permissible for women to wear gold, whether in the form of rings or not. Does he say that rings are permissible? There is no evidence for that. The female Companions wore bracelets and jewelry, both in the form of rings and not. The correct view is that zakah is not obligatory on jewelry intended for use. It is correct that the majority of scholars hold that there is no zakah on it, as long as it is intended for use and adornment.
