The Prophet (saw) would wear a ring with the name of Allah on it, but he would remove it before answering the call of nature.
 
There are no hadith where at the time of the prophet (PBUH), his companions or any other believers were making and wearing jewelry with the name of Allah on them.


“BUT WAIT! Didn’t the prophet (PBUH) used to wear a ring that bared the name of Allah on his hand?”


It is related from Hazrat Abdullah bin Ja'far radiyallahu anhu from another source (another chain of narrators) that the Prophet of Allah sallallahu alaihe wasallam wore a ring on the right hand.



'Ali bin Abi Taalib Radiyallahu 'Anhu says: "Rasulullah Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam wore his ring in the right hand".



So as we can see here, yes the prophet (PBUH) did wear a ring on his hand, but the part about him having the name of Allah on it is elaborated in these hadith:



Hazrat Ibn Umar radiyallahu anhu reports, "The Prophet of Allah sallallahu alaihe wasallam had a ring made of silver. The top portion remained towards the inside. On it was engraved 'Muhammad the Rasoolullah'. The people were prohibited from making this inscription on their rings. This is the same ring which fell from the hands of Hazrat Mu'ayqib radiyallahu anhu into the well of Arees during the reign of Hazrat Uthman radiyallahu anhu."



Book 29, Number 4202:

Narrated Anas b. Malik:

The Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) wanted to write to some Persian rulers. He was told that they would not read a letter without a seal in the form of a silver ring on which he engraved "Muhammad the Apostle of Allah."



As it is clearly reported in these Hadiths, the prophet (PBUH) in fact wore a ring that bared the name of Allah on it. However, it is clearly shown that the name of Allah alone was not on that ring but the title of our prophet "Muhammad the Apostle of Allah."

Our prophet was a man who was unable able to read, write, or sign his signature in that matter. As a result, he had his secretary do all his writing for him and he used his ring with his title engraved on it as a stamp each time he sent out a letter in his name.

With this being said, it is understandable why the name of Allah would be included on Muhammad’s (PBUH) ring, because it was in his title to be Allah’s Apostle/Messenger.

Clearly, no one else has ever had the title “Rasul’Allah” (Prophet of God) given to them after Muhammad’s (PBUH) time, so there is no way possible that anyone could lawfully wear a ring or any piece of jewelry with that title on it.

Narrated Anas bin Malik :

Allah's Apostle took a silver ring and had 'Muhammad, the Apostle' of Allah' engraved on it. The Prophet then said (to us), 'I have a silver ring with 'Muhammad, the Apostle of Allah engraved on it, so none of you should have the same engraving on his ring."

Jaza kalla kahair 4 ur all answer May Allah bless you ok got it

Praise be to Allaah.

There is nothing wrong with a man wearing a ring of silver, and there is nothing wrong with writing the name of Allaah and the like on it.

Al-Bukhaari (5877) and Muslim (2092) narrated from Anas ibn Maalik (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) acquired a ring of silver, on which was engraved Muhammad Rasool Allaah, and he said to the people: “I have acquired a ring of silver and engraved on it Muhammad Rasool Allaah, and no one should have an engraving like this.”

This indicates that it is permissible to engrave the name of Allaah on a ring. What the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) forbade was for anyone else to engrave the same as he had, because it contained his name and description. Moreover, he acquired this ring in order to use it as a seal, so it was a sign that was unique to him and distinguished him from others. If it were permissible for anyone to have the same engraving, that purpose would be defeated. This was stated by al-Haafiz in al-Fath.

It was narrated that many of the salaf had phrases engraved on their rings that included the name of Allaah, some of which were mentioned by al-Haafiz in al-Fath, who said:

In al-Musannaf, Ibn Abi Shaybah narrated that Ibn ‘Umar had engraved on his ring “ ‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Umar.” Ibn Abi Shaybah narrated that Hudhayfah and Abu ‘Ubaydah each had a ring on which was engraved “al-hamdu Lillaah (praise be to Allaah).” ‘Ali had a ring on which it said “Allaah al-Malik (Allaah the Sovereign)”. Ibraaheem al-Nakha’i had a ring on which it said “Billaah (by the help of Allaah).” Masrooq had a ring on which it said “Bismillaah (in the name of Allaah).” Abu Ja’far al-Baaqir had a ring on which it said “al-‘Izzah Lillaah (Glory belongs to Allaah).” It was narrated from al-Hasan and al-Husayn that there is nothing wrong with engraving the name of Allaah on a ring. Al-Nawawi said: this is the view of the majority. It was narrated from Ibn Sireen and some scholars that it is makrooh. End quote.

Ibn Abi Shaybah narrated with a saheeh isnaad from Ibn Sireen that he did not see anything wrong with a man writing on his ring “Hasbi Allaah (Allaah is sufficient for me)” and the like. This indicates that it is not proven that he regarded it as makrooh. We may reconcile the reports by saying that it is regarded as makrooh when there is the fear that it may be worn by one who is junub or menstruating, or that a person may clean himself after reliving himself using the hand on which it is worn, and it is permissible when there is no risk of that, so it is only regarded as makrooh because of the danger of it being exposed to disrespect. End quote.

And Allaah knows best.
