Ruling on using Silver Ornaments in Islam
According to Islam, it is not haram to wear ornaments such as rings, necklaces, bracelets, etc., which are made of silver, and as a result, there will be no problem in praying with them; Unlike gold, which is forbidden for men and invalidates prayers.
The Prophet (PBUH) and the infallible also used silver and considered the use of other metals, especially iron, as an abomination.
Amir Mominan (A.S.) says:
Do not wear anything other than a silver ring. Verily, the Messenger of God (S.A.W.) said: A hand with an iron ring in it is not clean.)
One day the Holy Prophet saw a man with an iron ring on his finger. So the Prophet said to him: This ring is the ornament of the people of hell. Take it away from you.
So that man took out the ring and said: O Messenger of God! Should I not wear a ring anymore? Hazrat (PBUH) said: (Why do it. If you want, get a silver ring and it doesn’t have to weigh more than one shekel.)
Regarding the prohibition of using iron rings, Amir al-Mu’minan Ali (AS) says: ((Don’t put iron rings on the hands of your children!))
Also, in other hadiths, adornment with instruments made of brass and copper is prohibited.
According to all of these hadiths, adorning with fake instruments, which are very popular today and most of them are made of iron and plated with gold and silver, is abhorrent. In addition, it harms health.
