Jami` at-Tirmidhi: Book 24, Hadith 74
Narrated ‘Abdullah bin Buraidah: From his father who said: “A man wearing an iron ring came to the Prophet (ﷺ). So he said to him: ‘What is this I see on you, jewelry of the people of the Fire ?’ Then he came wearing a ring of brass. So he said: ‘What is this smell of idols I sense on you ?’ Then he came wearing a ring of gold. So he said to him: ‘What is this jewelry of the people of Paradise I see on you ?’ So he said: ‘What should I use then ?’ He said: ‘From silver, but not its entire weight.”
This Hadith is Gharib and there are narrations on this topic from ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr, and ‘Abdullah bin Muslim’s Kunyah is Abu Taibah, and he is from Al-Marwaz.
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ حُبَابٍ، وَأَبُو تُمَيْلَةَ يَحْيَى بْنُ وَاضِحٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَعَلَيْهِ خَاتَمٌ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ فَقَالَ ” مَا لِي أَرَى عَلَيْكَ حِلْيَةَ أَهْلِ النَّارِ ” . ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ وَعَلَيْهِ خَاتَمٌ مِنْ صُفْرٍ فَقَالَ ” مَا لِي أَجِدُ مِنْكَ رِيحَ الأَصْنَامِ ” . ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ وَعَلَيْهِ خَاتَمٌ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ فَقَالَ ” مَا لِي أَرَى عَلَيْكَ حِلْيَةَ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ ” . قَالَ مِنْ أَىِّ شَيْءٍ أَتَّخِذُهُ قَالَ ” مِنْ وَرِقٍ وَلاَ تُتِمَّهُ مِثْقَالاً ” . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ . وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو . وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ يُكْنَى أَبَا طَيْبَةَ وَهُوَ مَرْوَزِيٌّ .

It is universally acknowledged as one of the six most authentic and important books of hadith in Sunni Islam, a group collectively referred to as the Kutub al-Sittah. This group includes the seminal works of al-Bukhari, Muslim, Abu Dawood, al-Nasa’i, and ibn Majah.
