The answer

A mother must be just in giving gifts to her children. What the mother did, giving to females without males, is a prohibited favoritism unless the males agree. Otherwise, she must redistribute and give the male the share of two females.

It is permissible to use coins as jewelry, as long as they are not gold and do not have images of living beings. Selling and buying images of living beings is forbidden. If something has images of living beings and is circulated among people to be hung on walls or similar places where it is not considered desecrated, then dealing in it is forbidden. If it is desecrated, it is permissible. In any case, depicting living beings is forbidden.

Some scholars are of the opinion that gold that has the image of an animal or a human is impermissible to wear; rather, the image must be effaced or obliterated. This applies to clothes, alcoholic beverages, and shirts.

It is not permissible to buy gold and silver on credit.
