The ruling on the pen and the prayer beads made of silver, and giving them as a gift to a disbeliever

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: a pen made of silver or a misbaha made of silver

The Shaykh:
It is forbidden. This is forbidden; it is not permissible. Yes.

The questioner:
Then he says, may Allah preserve you.

The Shaykh:
What is permitted is the silver ring, the adornment of swords, and the belt. That is what is permitted. Yes.

The questioner:
He says: And if that is not permissible, is it permissible for him to give it as a gift to a disbeliever, based on the hadith
It is only worn by one who has no good characterإنما يلبسه من لا خلاق له
Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 17:37
?

The Shaykh:
What? What is he giving?

The questioner:
A question related to the pen and the prayer beads.

The Shaykh:
No, it is not permitted. Gold, prayer beads, the pen, the inkwell, and the like of these are not permitted. Yes.

The questioner:
Then he says, may Allah preserve you: And if you know that they will sell it immediately after receiving it from you?

The Shaykh:
You have nothing to do with them. The important thing is that they take it for a need, and they deal with it: they eat it, sell it, or give it away, without violating [the rules]. Yes.
