بَابُ تَعْظِيمِ حُرُمَاتِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَبَيَانِ حُقُوقِهِمْ وَالشَّفَقَةِ عَلَيْهِمْ وَرَحْمَتِهِمْ

(from previous page) ⟵ Al-Tirmidhi narrated it in the Book of Vows and Oaths, Chapter on What is Stated Regarding Exception in an Oath, no. (1531), and he said: It is a good hadith. And similarly, Abu Dawud in the Book of Oaths and Vows, Chapter on Exception in an Oath, no. (3262), and Ibn Majah in the Book of Expiations, Chapter on Exception in an Oath, no. (2105), from the hadith of Ibn Umar, may Allah be pleased with them both, Chapter on Glorifying the Sanctities of Muslims, Clarifying their Rights, and Showing Compassion and Mercy towards them.

أَمَّا السَّبْعُ الَّتِي نَهَى عَنْهَا النَّبِيُّ عَلَيْهِ الصَّلَاةُ وَالسَّلَامُ فِي حَدِيثِ الْبَرَاءِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، فَمِنْهَا التَّخَتُّمُ بِالذَّهَبِ، وَالتَّخَتُّمُ بِالذَّهَبِ خَاصٌّ بِالرِّجَالِ، فَالرَّجُلُ لَا يَحِلُّ لَهُ أَنْ يَلْبَسَ الذَّهَبَ وَأَنْ يَتَخَتَّمَ بِالذَّهَبِ، وَلَا أَنْ يَلْبَسَ سِوَارًا مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، وَلَا أَنْ يَلْبَسَ قِلَادَةً مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، وَلَا أَنْ يَلْبَسَ خُرْصًا مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، وَلَا أَنْ يَلْبَسَ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ شَيْئًا مِنَ الذَّهَبِ، كُلُّ الذَّهَبِ حَرَامٌ عَلَى الرَّجُلِ؛ لِأَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ فِي رَجُلٍ رَأَى عَلَيْهِ خَاتَمًا مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، قَالَ: يَعْمِدُ أَحَدُكُمْ إِلَى جَمْرَةٍ مِنْ نَارٍ فَيَضَعُهَا فِي أُصْبُعِهِ أَوْ قَالَ فِي يَدِهِ، ثُمَّ نَزَعَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ الْخَاتَمَ فَرَمَى بِهِ، فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ قَالُوا لِلرَّجُلِ: خُذْ خَاتَمَكَ، انْتَفِعْ بِهِ، قَالَ: وَاللهِ لَا آخُذُ خَاتَمًا طَرَحَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ.

Regarding the seven prohibitions mentioned by the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, in the hadith of Al-Bara', one is wearing a gold ring. This is specific to men; it is unlawful for a man to wear gold in any form—whether a ring, bracelet, necklace, earring, or any gold ornament on his head. All gold is forbidden for men. The Prophet once saw a man wearing a gold ring and said, 'Would one of you pick up a burning coal and place it on his finger?'—or he said 'in his hand.' He then removed the ring and threw it away. After the Prophet left, people told the man to pick up his ring and make use of it, but he replied, 'By Allah, I will never take back a ring that the Prophet has cast aside.'

وَقَالَ عَلَيْهِ الصَّلَاةُ وَالسَّلَامُ فِي حَدِيثِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ: «إِنَّ هَذَيْنِ حَرَامٌ عَلَى ذُكُورِ أُمَّتِي، حِلٌّ لِإِنَاثِهِمْ».

He also stated in the hadith of Ali ibn Abi Talib, 'These two are forbidden for the males of my nation, yet permissible for their females.'
