Men wearing a silver ring with an aqeeq stone

Question

Which colour aqeeq stone can I wear and on which finger?

Answer

Men are only allowed to wear silver rings. The amount of silver should not exceed one mithqaal (4.374 g). If the silver ring has an aqeeq stone on it, it will be permissible provided it does not resemble rings worn by women. He should wear it on his small finger.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
