The Ruling on Adorning Oneself with Gold and Fitting Gold Teeth
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The second question in the letter from the listener (S. L. Y.), a Sudanese resident in Iraq, states: Is it permissible for a man to adorn himself with gold in his teeth, or in a ring on his finger? Please inform us, may Allah reward you.
Answer: It is not permissible for a man to adorn himself with gold, neither in a ring nor otherwise. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited wearing a gold ring. When he saw a man with a gold ring on his hand, he removed it and threw it away, and said:Sahih Muslim 2090 Therefore, it is not permissible for a Muslim to wear a gold ring; this is a matter for women. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Bulugh al-Maram 2:460.
However, regarding teeth, if there is a need for them, there is no harm. If there is a need to fit gold teeth, there is no blame on men or women. But if it is easy to fit teeth made of something other than gold, that is better, more excellent, and safer. And if he does not find what is beneficial and needs gold teeth, there is no harm. Yes.
