In salaat are women and men allowed to wear silver, and does it have to be a real or fake?

Answer

It is permissible for women to wear any amount of silver in Salaat, be it pure or imitation.

It is not permissible for males to use rings of any metal, gold, platinum, etc. However, a silver ring equivalent to 4.5 Mashas (67.5 grains troy) is permissible.
