عَنْ عَطَاءٍ عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهَا سَأَلَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الذَّهَبِ يُرْبَطُ بِهِ أَوْ تُرْبَطُ بِهِ الْمَسْكُ قَالَ اجْعَلِيهِ فِضَّةً وَصَفِّرِيهِ بِشَيْءٍ مِنْ زَعْفَرَانٍ
Lady Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that I asked the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) whether bracelets and the like could be made from a gold chain. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Make them from silver, and mix some saffron on it to give it a yellow color.
