Summary of Jami at-Tirmidhi Hadith 1742
This hadith about wearing a ring on the right hand records what As-Salt bin Abdullah bin Nawfal saw from Ibn Abbas. Ibn Abbas wore a ring on his right hand, and the narrator says he did not doubt that Ibn Abbas said he saw the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم wearing a ring on his right hand. The report is short, but it gives a direct link between the practice of Ibn Abbas and what he saw from the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. It is useful for people searching for the Prophet's ring hand or right hand ring hadith. The Hadith stays focused on placement, not on the material of the ring or any extra ruling beyond what is stated.
