Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We say: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Is it permissible? Or he says: Which fingers is it not permissible to wear a ring on? And is there anything from the Sunnah regarding this?
Answer:
A person wears what the society wears. If the society wears the ring on the little finger or the ring finger, he wears it like them. If they wear the watch on the left hand, he wears it like them. Whatever does not contradict the society, provided it does not contradict the Sunnah, is among the permissible matters. So if the society takes a side of what is permissible or what is recommended, you follow them and do not deviate from them. Yes, note this deviation; what is it? Good. Yes.
