The Ornaments
Al-Kāfi|Volume 6|Book 7|Chapter 27
عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْوَشَّاءِ وَ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ جَمِيعاً عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ سِرْحَانَ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنِ الذَّهَبِ يُحَلَّى بِهِ الصِّبْيَانُ فَقَالَ إِنَّهُ كَانَ أَبِي ( عليه السلام ) لَيُحَلِّي وُلْدَهُ وَ نِسَاءَهُ بِالذَّهَبِ وَ الْفِضَّةِ فَلَا بَأْسَ بِهِ .
2. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Washsha’ and Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ibn abu Nasr all from Dawud ibn Sarhan who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, about the case of children; if they can use gold as ornaments. He (the Imam) said, ‘My father عليه السلام, allowed his children and women to use gold and silver as ornaments, so it is not unlawful.’”
