1770. ‘Urfajah bin As’ad said: “My nose was severed on the Day of Al-Kulāb during Jāhiliyyah. So I got a nose of silver which caused an infection for me, so the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ ordered me to get a nose made of gold.” (Hasan) (Another chain) with similar meaning. [Abū ‘Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan [Gharīb], we only know of it as a narration of ‘Abdur-Rahmān bin Ṭarafah. Salm bin Zarīr reported similar to the narration of Abū Al-Ashhab from ‘Abdur-Rahmān bin Ṭaraqah – “from ‘Abdur-Raḥmān bin Ṭaraqah.” It has been related about more than one of the people of knowledge that they would brace their teeth with gold, and in this Hadīth there was a proof for them. [‘Abdur-Raḥmān] bin Mahdī said: “Salm bin Zarīn” but that is an error, “Zarīr” is more correct, [and Abū Sa’d Aṣ-Ṣan’ānī’s (a narrator in this chain) name is Muḥammad bin Muyassir].

١٧٧٠ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَلِيُّ بْنُ هَاشِمِ بْنِ الْبَرِيدِ ‌وَأَبُو سَعْدٍ الصَّاغَانِيُّ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي الْأَشْهَبِ ، عَنْ ‌عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ طَرَفَةَ ، عَنْ ‌عَرْفَجَةَ بْنِ أَسْعَدَ قَالَ: «أُصِيبَ أَنْفِي يَوْمَ الْكُلَابِ» فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، فَاتَّخَذْتُ أَنْفًا مِنْ وَرِقٍ، فَأَنْتَنَ عَلَيَّ فَأَمَرَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ أَتَّخِذَ أَنْفًا مِنْ ذَهَبٍ. ١٧٧٠ (م ١) - حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ بَدْرٍ ‌وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ الْوَاسِطِيُّ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي الْأَشْهَبِ نَحْوَهُ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ. إِنَّمَا نَعْرِفُهُ مِنْ حَدِيثِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ طَرَفَةَ، وَقَدْ رَوَى سَلْمُ بْنُ زَرِيرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ طَرَفَةَ، نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ أَبِي الْأَشْهَبِ وَقَدْ رَوَى غَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ أَنَّهُمْ شَدُّوا أَسْنَانَهُمْ بِالذَّهَبِ، وَفِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ حُجَّةٌ لَهُمْ. وَقَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ: سَلْمُ بْنُ رَزِينٍ، وَهُوَ وَهْمٌ وَزَرِيرٌ أَصَحُّ، وَأَبُو سَعْدٍ الصَّاغَانِيُّ اسْمُهُ: مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُيَسِّرٍ

Commentary

The Hadīth confirms that in case of necessity or inevitability it is allowed to use gold for ones teeth or nose.
