If a person wears chain or some other object for beautifying oneself, given that the object does not represent something peculiar, than there is nothing wrong with that. If people of other beliefs associate something with the object, which is contradictory to the beliefs of Islam, then Muslims should not have similar beliefs with the object. The ornaments should be considered jewelry to beautify one’s body.
