Sahih al-Bukhari 5877 (Book 77, Hadith 94) #5638
Engravings on Rings According to the Prophet Muhammad

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad instructed his followers not to have the same engraving on their rings as he had on his.

Narrated Anas bin Malik: Allah's Messenger took a silver ring and had 'Muhammad, the Apostle' of Allah' engraved on it. The Prophet then said (to us), 'I have a silver ring with 'Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah engraved on it, so none of you should have the same engraving on his ring".
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ صُهَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ اتَّخَذَ خَاتَمًا مِنْ فِضَّةٍ، وَنَقَشَ فِيهِ، مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ‏.‏ وَقَالَ ‏ "‏ إِنِّي اتَّخَذْتُ خَاتَمًا مِنْ وَرِقٍ، وَنَقَشْتُ فِيهِ، مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ‏.‏ فَلاَ يَنْقُشَنَّ أَحَدٌ عَلَى نَقْشِهِ

QUICK LESSONS:
Follow instructions from beloved prophet out of love & devotion

EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith narrated by Anas bin Malik tells us that the Prophet Muhammad took a silver ring and had 'Muhammad, the Apostle of Allah' engraved on it. He then instructed his followers not to have the same engraving on their rings as he did. This teaches us that we should be humble and not try to imitate or copy someone else's accomplishments or possessions, even if it is someone we admire like our beloved prophet. We should strive for our own successes and accomplishments instead of trying to replicate those of others.

This also shows us how much respect and reverence Muslims have for their prophet, as they are willing to follow even such small instructions from him out of love and devotion. It also serves as a reminder that we should always strive for excellence in whatever we do, no matter how small or insignificant it may seem at first glance.
