Muhammad bin Malik (may Allah have mercy on him) related: I saw a gold ring on the hand of Sayyiduna al-Bara' bin Azib (may Allah be pleased with him), and he was asked the reason for (wearing) it. He explained that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was distributing wealth and this ring was left over. He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Who do you think has the most right to it?" Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Bara', come close." So he (peace and blessings be upon him) himself put the ring on my finger and said: "Wear what Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) have clothed you with."
