Sunan an-Nasai 5162 (Book 48, Hadith 123) #19694
Wearing a Nose Made of Gold

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (SAW) advised a man to wear a nose made of gold after his nose had been cut off in battle.

It was narrated from 'Abdur-Rahman bin Tarafah, from 'Arafah bin As'ad bin Karib, who was his grandfather- saying that he saw his grandfather, and he said: "His nose had been cut off at the battle of Al-Kulab during the Jahiliyyah, so he wore a nose made of silver, but it began to rot on him, so the Prophet SAW told him to wear a nose made of gold".
أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الأَشْهَبِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ طَرَفَةَ، عَنْ عَرْفَجَةَ بْنِ أَسْعَدَ بْنِ كَرِبٍ، - قَالَ وَكَانَ جَدُّهُ - قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَنَّهُ، رَأَى جَدَّهُ قَالَ أُصِيبَ أَنْفُهُ يَوْمَ الْكُلاَبِ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ قَالَ فَاتَّخَذَ أَنْفًا مِنْ فِضَّةٍ فَأَنْتَنَ عَلَيْهِ فَأَمَرَهُ النَّبِيُّ أَنْ يَتَّخِذَهُ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad's advice to a man who had lost his nose in battle during the pre Islamic period known as Jahiliyyah. The man was wearing a silver prosthetic nose but it began to rot on him so the Prophet advised him to wear one made of gold instead. This story teaches us that even though we may suffer losses or setbacks in life, we should remain patient and trust that Allah will provide us with better solutions than what we can think of ourselves. It also shows us how compassionate and caring the Prophet was towards others and how he always sought out solutions for people's problems no matter how small they were.
