Rings

Q: I want to ask about aqeeq stone. Can a female wear a black aqeeq stone ring as they cant be in tahaarat in all the time.

Q: I have a question regarding using/wearing stones in jewellery. I know that stones like kyanite and lapis lazuli are often used by people because they believe that they have certain metaphysical properties. I've recently come into quite a few stones (quartz crystal, malachite, kyanite, etc.) that have been passed from person to person, but the original purchaser bought them because of the metaphysical properties that they believed them to have. I simply think that they're beautiful rocks and creations of Allah Ta'ala and have no intentions of relying on them for anything. Is it permissible for me to wear them as jewellery? Would that be a form of shirk? Diamonds and sapphires are believed to have certain properties as well; should we just avoid all stones?

Q: We teaching revert ladies. Coming to the type of rings permissible to wear, we explained metal jewellery are not permissible because the idol worshippers used to use it. Now some questions arose. Please give us some clear and simple answer to their understanding Insha Allah.

1) Why is it not permissible to wear imitation rings (i.e the event behind it if there is) and do the idol worshippers used to have a certain tradition behind it or is it just that they used to use it?
