43:53 - Then why are not gold bracelets bestowed on him or (why) come (not) with him angels
accompanying him in procession?" 4655
4655 Gold bracelets and gold chains were possibly among the insignia of royalty. In any case they betokened wealth, and
the materialists judge a man's worth by his wealth and his following and equipage. So Pharaoh wanted to see Moses,
if he had any position in the spiritual kingdom, invested with gold bracelets, and followed by a great train of angels as
his Knight-companions! The same kind of proofs were demanded by the materialist Quraish of our holy Prophet.
These were puerilities, but such puerilities go down with the crowd. Barring a few Egyptians who believed in Allah and
in the Message of Moses, the rest of Pharaoh's entourage followed Pharaoh in his pursuit of revenge, and were
drowned in the Red Sea. (43.53)
76:21 - Upon them will be green Garments of fine silk and heavy brocade and they will be adorned
with Bracelets of silver; and their Lord will give to them to drink of a Wine Pure and Holy.

5853 Cf. xviii. 31. The bracelets are there said to be of gold. (76.21)
5854 This would seem to be the culmination of the honour which the Blessed receive at the Royal and Divine Banquet. The
words in the next verse express the sort of speech which will make the Guest a denizen of Heaven. (76.21)

Zakah on Jewelry
Scholars agree that no zakah has to be paid on diamonds, pearls, sapphires, rubies, corals, chrysolite, or any kind of
precious stones unless they are used for trade. There is, however, disagreement over whether women's gold or silver jewelry
is exempt. Abu Hanifah and Ibn Hazm hold that zakah is compulsory on gold and silver jewelry provided they constitute a
nisab. Their view is based on the report of 'Amr ibn Shu'aib from his father from his grandfather: "Two women with gold
bracelets on their wrists came to the Prophet, upon whom be peace. The Prophet said: 'Do you want Allah to make you wear
bracelets of fire on the Day of Judgment?' They answered: 'No.' He said: 'Then pay the zakah which is due on what you wear
on your wrists.' "
Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith
Hadith 4.817 Narrated by
Ibn Abbas
Musailama-al-Kadhdhab (i.e. the liar) came in the life-time of Allah's Apostle with many of his people (to Medina) and said, "If
Muhammad makes me his successor, I will follow him." Allah's Apostle went up to him with Thabit bin Qais bin Shams; and
Allah's Apostle was carrying a piece of a date-palm leaf in his hand. He stood before Musailama (and his companions) and
said, "If you asked me even this piece (of a leaf), I would not give it to you. You cannot avoid the fate you are destined to, by
Allah. If you reject Islam, Allah will destroy you. I think that you are most probably the same person whom I have seen in the
dream." Abu Huraira told me that Allah's Apostle; said, "While I was sleeping, I saw (in a dream) two gold bracelets round my
arm, and that worried me too much. Then I was instructed divinely in my dream, to blow them off and so I blew them off, and
they flew away. I interpreted the two bracelets as symbols of two liars who would appear after me. And so one of them was
Al-Ansi and the other was Musailama Al-Kadhdhab from Al-Yamama."

Fiqh 1.31a
Running water through one's fingers and toes
Ibn 'Abbas said that when the Messenger of Allah performed ablution, he would run his fingers through his fingers and toes.
(Related by "the five," except Ahmad.) It is also related that it is preferable to remove jewelry, for example, rings, bracelets,
and so on, while performing ablution. Even though these reports are not accepted as fully authentic, one must follow them,
for they fall under the general category of completing and perfecting the ablution.

The reason for its legitimacy
Said 'Aishah, "We went out with the Messenger of Allah on one of his journeys until we reached Baida'. At this place, one of
my bracelets broke and fell somewhere. The Messenger of Allah and others began to look for it. There was no water at that
place, nor did anyone have any water with him. The people went to Abu Bakr and said, "Do you see what your daughter has
done?" Abu Bakr came to me, while the Prophet was sleeping on my thigh. He blamed me and said to me whatever Allah
willed him to say. He also poked me in my side. I could not move, for the Prophet, upon whom be peace, was sleeping on my
lap. He slept until the morning without any water available. Then, Allah revealed the verse of tayammum. As-Sayyid ibn
Hudhain said, 'That was not the first blessing from the family of Abu Bakr.' The camel that I was on got up and we found the
necklace underneath it." (Related by "the group," except for at-Tirmidhi.)
