It is not lawful the usage of gold and silver vessels and utensils in purification. Evidently as mentioned the Messenger of Allah said, "Do not drink in gold or silver vessels and do not eat in dishes made of them, for they are for them (unbelievers) in this life and for you in the Hereafter" (Bukhari & Muslim)
Umm Salama, the wife of Allah's Apostle (pbuh), said: He who drinks in the vessel of silver in fact drinks down in his belly the fire of Hell. (Muslim)
The ruling of vessels soldered by them takes on the same ruling, except if it is a small amount of silver solder (only in need for necessities), related by Annas, When the (drinking) cup of the Prophet (pbuh) was broken, he fixed it with a silver wire at the crack. (Bukhari)
There are conditions for the exceptional permissibility of silver solder:
1. It must be for a need
2. It must be small in amount
3. It must be for soldering
4. Only silver can be used (gold cannot be used at all)
The Scholars mention that these necessities are replacing teeth or certain bones of the body with silver or even gold as it has been recorded that the permission of the Prophet to some of his companions in the replacement of bones due to illness, ‘Abd al-Rahmaan ibn Tarafah narrated that his grandfather ‘Arfajah ibn As’ad had his nose cut off in the battle of al-Kulaab, and he wore a nose made of silver, but it began to stink, so the Prophet (pbuh) told him to get a nose made of gold. (This hadeeth was classed as hasan by al-Albaani in Saheeh Abi Dawood.)
Shaykh Muhammad ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: It is not permissible for men to have gold teeth fitted unless that is essential, because it is haraam for a man to wear gold or adorn himself with it. With regard to women, if it is customary for women to adorn themselves with gold teeth, then there is nothing wrong with them doing that; a woman may plate her teeth with gold if it is customary for women to adorn themselves in this manner, and it is not extravagance, because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Gold and silk have been permitted for the females of my ummah.”
If a woman dies in this state, or if a man dies who wore a gold tooth out of necessity, then it should be removed, unless there is the fear of mutilation of the corpse, i.e., there is the fear that the gum may be split, in which case it should be left alone. That is because gold is considered to be a kind of wealth, and wealth is to be inherited by the heirs of the deceased; leaving it with the deceased and burying it is a waste of money.
Such opinions were motioned by Sheikhal Islam Ibn Tayimyah, and Allah knows best...
Other then gold and silver it is permissible to use all other utensils that are pure and (it is permissible) to own them. This is proven through the Sharriah that everything is halal unless there is something to prove it to be haram derived from the verse,“It is He Who hath created for you all things that are on earth; Moreover His design comprehended the heavens, for He gave order and perfection to the seven firmaments; and of all things He hath perfect knowledge.”
(2/29)
It is likewise permissible to use the vessels and utensils of the people of the Book (Christians & Jews), as well as their garments, so long as they are not known to be impure.
Narrated from Abu Tha‘labah al-Khushani that he asked the Messenger of Allah (pbuh), We live close to some the people of the Book and they cook pork in their pots and drink wine in their vessels. The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said: “If you can find other vessels, eat and drink from them. If you cannot find anything else, then wash them with water and eat and drink” (Classed as sahih by al-Albaani in Sahih Sunan Abi Dawood.)
There is a difference in opinion among the Scholars with regards to if weather it is permissible to use the vessels and utensils of the Mushrikeen (The Polytheists) but the revised opinion in this matter is it’s permissible based on the evidences through the numerous Hadith that have been narrated. Evidently it has been reported in Bukhari & Muslim that the Prophet (pbuh) made Wuduo from a drinking vessel of a Polytheist. This and many narrations that have been authentically narrated prove it being permissible to use the vessels and utensils of the Mushrikeen (The Polytheists), and Allah knows best...
It is not permissible to use the skins of dead animals for drink vessels or clothes, unless they are tanned and are pure animals (such as the animals that are permissible to eat)
Allah said, 'Say, "I do not find within that which was revealed to me [anything] forbidden to one who would eat it unless it be a dead animal or blood spilled out or the flesh of swine - for indeed, it is impure - or it be [that slaughtered in] disobedience, dedicated to other than Allah.' (6-145)
In addition the Prophet (pbuh) said: “Tanning the skin of the dead animal (that died without being slaughtered) is its purification.”
(Narrated by Ibn Hibbaan & al-Daaraqutni classed as Sahih by Albani.)
It is also pure the Parts of animals on the outside, that has no blood flowing through it, such as wool, teeth, fur, and tusks, Allah said, ‘..and from their wool, fur and hair’ (16/80).
With regard to animals whose meat may be eaten, slaughtering them in accordance with Sharriah makes their meat and skin permissible, and tanning makes their skin permissible if the animal died without being slaughtered in accordance with Sharriah (maytah or “dead meat”).
In the case of animals that cannot be eaten, slaughtering them in the Sharriah manner does not make their meat or skins permissible, and tanning does not make their skins permissible.
This is the view of al-Awza‘i, ‘Abd-Allah ibn al-Mubaarak, Abu Thawr and Ishaaq ibn Raahawayh; it is one view narrated from Imam Ahmad; and it is the view favoured by Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allah have mercy on him) according to one of his two opinions.
This view was also favoured by a number of contemporary scholars, Sheikh Muhammad ibn Saalih Uthaymeen (may Allah have mercy on him) said: And it was said that the skin of an animal that died without being slaughtered correctly may be purified by means of tanning so long as it comes from an animal that may be made permissible by means of proper slaughter. But if it cannot be made permissible by means of proper slaughter, then it cannot be purified. This view is most likely to be correct. Based on that, the skin of a cat and any smaller animal cannot be purified by means of tanning.
And Allah knows best...
