Sunan an-Nasai 5208 (Book 48, Hadith 169) #19740
The Prophet's Ring

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (SAW) wore a ring with words inscribed on it and warned his followers not to copy the inscription.

It was narrated that Anas bin Malik said: "The Messenger of Allah SAW put on a ring, and he had some words inscribed on it. He said: 'We have put on a ring and have had some words engraved on it; no one of you should copy this inscription'." Then Anas said: "It is as if I can see its whiteness on his hand".
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ سَيْفٍ الْحَرَّانِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ صُهَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ اتَّخَذَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ خَاتَمًا وَنَقَشَ عَلَيْهِ نَقْشًا قَالَ ‏ "‏ إِنَّا قَدِ اتَّخَذْنَا خَاتَمًا وَنَقَشْنَا فِيهِ نَقْشًا فَلاَ يَنْقُشْ أَحَدٌ عَلَى نَقْشِهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَنَسٌ فَكَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى وَبِيصِهِ فِي يَدِهِ

Respect Islamic teachings, Follow prophetic guidance

EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith narrated by Anas bin Malik tells us that the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ wore a ring with some words inscribed on it. He warned his followers not to copy this inscription. Anas said that he could still see its whiteness on the hand of the Prophet ﷺ even though it was many years ago. This hadith teaches us that we should be careful about what we imitate and follow in our lives as Muslims. We should only take guidance from what is taught in Islam and avoid copying things which are not part of our faith or culture. It also shows us how important it is to respect and honour the teachings of our beloved prophet ﷺ even after he has passed away.
