Selling imitation rings
Question
Is it permissible to sell non-plated gold and silver rings or imitation rings?
Answer
We understand ‘imitation rings’ to be rings of other metals besides gold and silver which are non-plated, such as rings manufactured from iron, copper etc. Selling of such rings (as well as other imitation rings) is Makrooh.
