5215. It was narrated that ‘Alī said: “The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said to me: ‘Say: O Allāh, guide me and make me steadfast,’ and he forbade me to put a ring on this one and this one” – and Bishr (one of the narrators) pointed to his forefinger and middle finger. And ‘Āsim said: “One of the two of them.”[3] (Sahih)

Arabic text

5212 - أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَعِيلُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمُ بْنُ كُلَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ: قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " قُلْ: اللَّهُمَّ اهْدِنِي وَسَدِّدْنِي " وَنَهَانِي أَنْ أَضَعَ الْخَاتَمِ فِي هَذِهِ وَهَذِهِ، وَأَشَارَ بِشْرٌ بِالسَّبَّابَةِ وَالْوُسْطَى قَالَ: وَقَالَ عَاصِمٌ «أَحَدُهُمَا»

Commentary

'Steadfast': In Arabic, the term used in No. 5213 is As-Sadâd. It lexically signifies a right state; appropriate direction, having or taking a right direction or tendency, tending toward the right point or object, etc. That is why this signification was given priority or precedence.
