What is the ruling on wearing an iron ring?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Scholars have differed regarding the ruling on wearing an iron ring. Some have gone so far as to prohibit it based on a weak narrated by Abu Dawud. The correct view is that it is permissible to wear an iron ring due to the weakness of the hadith that prohibits it, and the fundamental principle concerning things is permissibility until there is evidence of prohibition.
