The questioner:
Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh:
The accursed Shaytan. No, there is no wali al-amr (one in authority). Yes.
The questioner:
And in the words of al-Hafiz, if you had commented on it regarding the iron ring, rather, al-Kafashi said in his book *Al-Ahjar* (The Stones) that the ring of the successful one is a resting place for Shaytan if it is worn, and it preserves him. Yes. So what is there in the speech that requires your commentary? We are young. What? He spoke about the hadith that the manSunan Abi Dawud 4223Da'if (Al-Albani) and in its chain is Abu Tayyibah ibn Ahmad ibn al-Muhmalah, with sukun on the final letter, followed by Muhammad, whose name is 'Abdullah ibn Muslim al-Marwazi, Abu Hatim al-Razi, whose hadith is written down, and there is no disagreement. And Ibn Uthman said in *Al-Thiqat* (The Trustworthy Narrators) that he makes mistakes and contradicts. If it is preserved, the prohibition is applied to what is pure iron. And al-Tifashi said in his book *Al-Ahjar* that the steel ring is a repelling of Shaytan if silver is wound around it, so this supports the difference in preservation.
The Shaykh:
So there is no honey in this, this is from this pocket, this is from this pocket, so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Hold fast to the ring of Hajj," this is one of the most authentic hadiths in the two Sahihs, and the other ring hadiths are all weak, contradicting the authentic hadith. Yes.
Peace be upon you.

and came wearing an iron signet ring. He (the Prophet) said: What is it that I see you wearing the adornment of the inhabitants of Hell? So he threw it away. He asked: Messenger of Allah, what material I must use? He said: Make it of silver, but do not weigh it as much as a mithqal,
جاء وعليه خاتم من حديد فقال ما لي أرى عليك حلية أهل النار فطرحه فقال يا رسول الله من أي شيء أتخذه؟ قال اتخذه من ورق ولا تتمه مثقالاThe Shaykh:
