Selling artificial rings
Question
I read in Behashti Zewar that it is not permissible for women to wear artificial rings.
1. Since I was unaware of this ruling, I already have many such rings that I used to wear. What should be done with those rings?
2. I have given rings as gifts to many women in the past and my jewellery business gave me profit from selling artificial rings. Will I be sinful for this? What should I do now?
Answer
1. You can discard them or sell them away.
2. Notify them that it is incorrect.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
