Answered by Shaykh Faraz Rabbani
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah,
In the Hanafi school, only silver rings are permitted for men; other metals are not permitted. There is more leeway in the Shafii school—search the archives at www.sunnipath.com – and one may follow their position if one wishes, though it is best and closest to piety (taqwa) to stick to one’s own school.

The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, "Knowledge is only through study." While some knowledge can be gained from reading or casually listening to lectures, the best means to gain knowledge is through finding a qualified teacher and then setting up a systematic program of learning. Picking up a book or reading an article and trying to figure things out on our own is no substitute for learning from someone who has a direct link to our living tradition.
