Can A Man Wear A Wedding Ring In Islam?

Muslim men are not allowed to wear gold rings, but silver or other precious metal rings are permissible for men. The Sunnah way for men to wear a ring is to wear it on the little finger of the left hand, not on any other finger. Plaiting hair is allowed for women, as mentioned in Fatwa 87021.

The prohibition on gold or silver jewelry is based on a hadith that says the Prophet Muhammad cursed women who wear such jewelry and men who help them do so. However, there are exceptions to this rule, such as wearing the ring on the little finger of the left hand. Men can wear their ring on either their right or left hand, as some scholars prefer the former.

Men are only permitted to wear a silver ring, and rings made from materials other than silver, such as stone, metal, or brass, are not permissible. Stones can be used in the rings, but there is no good in mushabahat. In summary, it is not permissible for Muslim men to wear gold or silver jewelry, but it is permissible for men to wear rings on the occasion of engagement or marriage.

The Prophet Muhammad’s ring was black and had a weight of one mithqal (4.5 grams). Tungsten carbide, a metal alloy formed when combined with carbon, is not permissible for men to wear. Men are allowed to wear silver equivalent to 4.374 grams. There is no evidence in Islam that legalizes wearing an engagement or wedding ring, so it is better for both men and women to avoid it. Muslims recommend wearing rings on the little finger of the left hand for men, while women can wear rings on all fingers. Wedding rings are permissible for both men and women, but the man’s ring should be simple and silver, not gold, and not have valuable stones like diamonds. It is permissible to exchange rings for the Nikah or walimah, but it is not permissible to wear platinum rings.
