Answer:

 

Silver utensils

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

 

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith 7.537         Narrated by Hudhaifa

The Prophet (saws) said, "Do not (eat or) drink in gold or silver utensils, and (the believing men) do not wear clothes of silk or Dibaj, for these things are for them (disbelievers) in this world and for you in the Hereafter."

 

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith 7.538         Narrated by Um Salamah, Umm al-Mumineen

That she heard the Messenger of Allah (saws) say:"He who drinks in silver utensils is only filling his abdomen with Hell Fire."

 

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith 2.331         Narrated by Al Bara bin Azib

That the Messenger of Allah (saws) forbade us (the believers) to use silver utensils and dishes, and (for the believing men) to wear golden rings, silk (clothes), Dibaj (pure silk cloth), Qissi and Istabraq (two kinds of silk cloths).

 

The Messenger of Allah (saws) forbade the believing men and the believing women who sincerely believe in Allah and the Last Day to eat or drink anything from a gold or silver utensil.

 

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me alone.  Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

 

Your brother and well wisher in Islam,

 

 

Burhan
