Is there a Hadith from the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, that mentions the agate stone and its benefits, and what is the text of this Hadith and who narrated it?
Muslim reported that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, had a ring made of silver with an Abyssinian stone. Imam An-Nawawi explained that it was either made of onyx or carnelian because their sources are in Abyssinia and Yemen, or that its color was black. As for the Ahadith (prophetic narrations) regarding the benefits of carnelian, such as "Wear carnelian rings, for it is blessed," or "It banishes poverty," or "No one will be afflicted with sorrow as long as he wears it," or that Gabriel brought it from Paradise – all of these narrations are weak or fabricated, as judged by Al-Ajlouni and Al-Albani. Al-Ajlouni narrated from Ibn Adi that nothing regarding this has been authentically established from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him. What is authentically established is that he had a silver ring with a carnelian stone.
