أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّی وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ کُلَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ نَهَانِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ الْخَاتَمِ فِي هَذِهِ وَهَذِهِ يَعْنِي السَّبَّابَةَ وَالْوُسْطَی وَاللَّفْظُ لِابْنِ الْمُثَنَّی

It was narrated that ‘Ali said: “The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم forbade me to wear a ring on this one and this one,” meaning the forefinger and middle finger. And this is the wording of Ibn Al Muthanna. (Sahih)
