أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ مَسْعَدَةَ، عَنْ أَشْعَثَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ عَبِيدَةَ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ نَهَانِي النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنِ الْقَسِّيِّ وَالْحَرِيرِ وَخَاتَمِ الذَّهَبِ وَأَنْ أَقْرَأَ رَاكِعًا . خَالَفَهُ هِشَامٌ وَلَمْ يَرْفَعْهُ .

Summary of Sunan an-Nasai Hadith 5183
This hadith about gold rings and silk reports that Ali said the Prophet [SAW] forbade him from Al-Qassi, silk, gold rings, and reciting Qur’an while bowing. It also includes a narrator note that Hisham contradicted him and did not narrate it in marfu form. The explanation should stay close to the text. The main teaching is not about fashion trends; it is about following prophetic limits in adornment and keeping prayer postures in their proper place. The hadith brings together two areas people often search for: Islamic ruling on gold rings and reciting Quran in ruku hadith. That keeps the explanation honest and easy to follow.
What we learn from this hadith
- Gold rings and silk are named among the things forbidden in this report.
- The report links outward dress with worship etiquette.
- Qur’an recitation is not placed in the bowing posture here.
- Narrator notes should be kept in mind when reading the report.
