The answer

After researching, it became clear that "Khatim al-Hikmah" (Ring of Wisdom) is a term invented by charlatans, sorcerers, and tricksters to claim that wearing it brings abundant good. This ring is considered among the illusory means that have no basis in Islamic law. It is minor (polytheism) because it attributes a cause to something that is not a cause. Therefore, its ruling is similar to that of amulets (tama'im), which the Prophet (peace be upon him) forbade, saying: "Whoever wears an amulet has committed shirk," and "Whoever wears an amulet, may Allah not fulfill his need; and whoever wears a cowrie shell, may Allah not grant him peace." Amulets were beads that Arabs would wear, claiming they repelled the evil eye, and Islam nullified them. Therefore, wearing this ring with the belief that it brings abundant good is forbidden and considered an act of shirk with Allah.
