[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O Ali, ask Allah for guidance, righteousness, and for Him to prevent me from making mistakes such as placing the ring on this finger and this finger," and he pointed to the index finger and middle finger. Abu Al-Ahwas Salam ibn Sulaim contradicted him, narrated from Aasim, who narrated from Abu Burdah.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يَا عَلِيُّ سَلِ اللهَ الْهُدَى وَالسَّدَادَ وَنَهَانِي أَنْ أَجْعَلَ الْخَاتَمَ فِي هَذِهِ وَهَذِهِ وَأَشَارَ يَعْنِي بِالسَّبَّابَةِ وَالْوُسْطَى» خَالَفَهُ أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ سَلَامِ بْنِ سُلَيْمٍ رَوَاهُ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ
[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prevented me from wearing a ring on this finger and on the middle finger or the one that follows it." Abu Abdur-Rahman said to us, "This is more correct than what came before it."
«نَهَانِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَنْ أَتَخَتَّمَ فِي إِصْبَعِي هَذِهِ وَفِي الْوُسْطَى أَوِ الَّتِي تَلِيهَا» قَالَ لَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ «وَهَذَا أَوْلَى بِالصَّوَابِ مِنَ الَّذِي قَبْلَهُ»
"The Messenger of Allah [SAW] 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. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 5211)
«نَهَانِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنِ الْخَاتَمِ فِي هَذِهِ أَوْ هَذِهِ يَعْنِي السَّبَّابَةَ وَالْوُسْطَى» اللَّفْظُ لِابْنِ الْمُثَنَّى
"I heard 'Ali say: 'The Prophet of Allah [SAW] forbade me to wear a ring on the forefinger and middle finger.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 5286)
سَمِعْتُ عَلِيًّا يَقُولُ «نَهَانِي نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ عَنِ الْخَاتَمِ فِي السَّبَّابَةِ وَالْوُسْطَى»
"The Messenger of Allah [SAW] said to me: 'Say: O Allah, guide me and make me steadfast,' and he forbade me to put a ring on this one and this one" - and Bishr (one of the narrators) pointed to his forefinger and middle finger. And 'Asim said: "One of the two of them." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 5212)
قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «قُلِ اللهُمَّ اهْدِنِي وَسَدِّدْنِي» وَنَهَانِي أَنْ أَضَعَ الْخَاتَمَ فِي هَذِهِ أَوْ هَذِهِ وَأَشَارَ بِشْرٌ بِالسَّبَّابَةِ وَالْوُسْطَى قَالَ وَقَالَ عَاصِمٌ أَحَدُهُمَا
