The ruling on wearing white gold
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, he says: Is white gold permissible for a man to wear, or is it included in the general prohibition?
Answer:
It is not gold; this is another metal. People called it gold, but it is not gold, so it does not fall under the ruling of gold. It is a metal, but a precious one. Because of its preciousness, they called it gold. It is not gold, and it does not take on the rulings of gold. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you
