حَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ أَخْبَرَنَا حَبَّانُ بْنُ هِلَالٍ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَی بْنُ سَعِيدٍ وَرَبِيعَةُ الرَّأْيِ بْنُ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ يَزِيدَ مَوْلَی الْمُنْبَعِثِ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ ضَالَّةِ الْإِبِلِ زَادَ رَبِيعَةُ فَغَضِبَ حَتَّی احْمَرَّتْ وَجْنَتَاهُ وَاقْتَصَّ الْحَدِيثَ بِنَحْوِ حَدِيثِهِمْ وَزَادَ فَإِنْ جَائَ صَاحِبُهَا فَعَرَفَ عِفَاصَهَا وَعَدَدَهَا وَوِکَائَهَا فَأَعْطِهَا إِيَّاهُ وَإِلَّا فَهِيَ لَکَ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 4503
Zaid b. Khalid al-Juhani, the Companion ot Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ), said that Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) was asked about the picking up of stray gold or silver, whereupon he said: Recognise well the strap and the bag (containing) that and then make an announcement regarding that for one year, but if none recognises it, then spend that and it would be a trust with you; and if someone comes one day to make demand of that, then pay that to him. He (the inquirer) asked about the lost camel, whereupon he said: You have nothing to do with that. Leave that alone, for it has feet and also a leather bag, it drinks water, and eats (the leaves) of the trees. He asked him about sheep, whereupon he said: Take it, it is for you, or for your brother, or for the wolf.
