Is a pen with a tiny gold nib okay for a man to use?

Assalamu alaikum! I've got this pen, and the tip is made of solid gold. But it's really small-like around 1 gram-and it's coated with platinum, so it looks just like regular steel. Would it be permissible for a man to use it?

Just use it and make dua. If you’re really worried, maybe replace the nib with a steel one? But honestly, 1g platinum coated... no one’s gonna call you out.

lol 1 gram? That’s nothing. I think the prohibition is more about wearing gold as adornment. Using it as a tool where it’s hidden seems different. But yeah, double-check.

Man, I’d just use it. It’s a pen, not a ring. The Prophet (PBUH) forbade gold utensils and silk for men, but a nib? That’s a tool. You’re overthinking it.
