أَخْبَرَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ مَنْصُورِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ النَّيْسَابُورِيُّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْبَلْخِيُّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ مَوْلًى، لِلْعَبَّاسِ أَنَّ عَلِيًّا، قَالَ نَهَانِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنْ لُبْسِ الْمُعَصْفَرِ وَعَنِ الْقَسِّيِّ وَعَنِ التَّخَتُّمِ بِالذَّهَبِ وَأَنْ أَقْرَأَ وَأَنَا رَاكِعٌ .
It was narrated from Nafi', from a freed slave of Ibn 'Abbas, that 'Ali said: "The Messenger of Allah [SAW] forbade me from wearing garments dyed with safflower, and from Al-Qassi, and from gold rings, and that I recite Qur'an while I am bowing."

Summary of Sunan an-Nasai Hadith 5179
This narration from Ali lists four matters: wearing garments dyed with safflower, Al-Qassi, gold rings, and reciting Qur'an while bowing. It is another clear report for people searching “gold ring hadith Ali” or “reciting Quran in ruku hadith.” The order begins with safflower-dyed garments in this version, then Al-Qassi, then gold rings, then Qur'an recitation while bowing. That order is worth keeping because it shows respect for the exact report. The Hadith does not give extra reasons, so the explanation should not invent them. It simply presents dress boundaries and a prayer-related boundary in one short narration.
What we learn from this hadith
- This version starts with safflower-dyed garments.
- Al-Qassi and gold rings are named in the list.
- Ali also mentions not reciting Qur’an while bowing.
- The narration gives a compact set of boundaries without added reasons.
