Comparing the prohibition of silver with the prohibition of gold

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is the use of silver like that of gold in terms of prohibition, or is that incorrect?

Answer:
Gold is more severe; gold is more severe in its prohibition, and silver is not as severe. Therefore, what is permissible with silver is not permissible with gold. A man may wear a silver ring, but he may not wear a gold ring. It is permissible to mend a broken cup with something of silver, but not with gold. The point is that gold is more severe. Yes.
