Using gold teeth covers out of necessity

443

A: There is no blame on a man to inlay broken teeth with gold when (Part No. 24; Page No. 75) necessary, not for just adornment. Indeed, the gold does not corrode by the passage of time. The Prophet (peace be upon him) gave a concession to one of his Companions to wear a gold nose when his nose was cut off. Likewise, some early righteous ancestors used to support their teeth with gold strings. All these reports indicate that it is permissible to use gold in teeth when necessary. Hence, you are not to blame for what you did out of necessity - In sha’a-Allah (if Allah wills).May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
