Did it reach us that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) wore a gold ring?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
His statement: "Of gold or silver?"

Answer:
This is uncertainty from the narrator, and the correct version is: "of gold." This is the preserved version. He made it of gold, then threw it away, and made a ring of silver.
Muslim narrated in *Sahih Muslim* that he (peace and blessings be upon him) sometimes wore it on his right hand and sometimes on his left. This indicates that the preferred position is for the stone to be on the inside. This is similar to a wristwatch; it is of the same category. There is no harm in wearing it on the right hand, and no harm in wearing it on the left hand, because it is for a need, just like a ring.
