The ruling on wearing gold-plated watches for men and women
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The questioner asks: Is it permissible to wear a watch that contains a very small percentage of gold?
The Shaykh : As for the woman, it is permissible for her to wear a gold-plated watch, because gold is lawful for women. As for the men, it is not permissible for them to wear a watch decorated with gold, because it is not permissible for a man to wear gold in any case. On this occasion, we warn some Muslims who wear gold rings, for the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) called that a brand of fire that he throws
