Sunan Abi Dawud 1709
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ يَعْنِي الطَّحَّانَ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ، - الْمَعْنَى - عَنْ خَالِدٍ الْحَذَّاءِ، عَنْ أَبِي الْعَلاَءِ، عَنْ مُطَرِّفٍ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ - عَنْ عِيَاضِ بْنِ حِمَارٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " مَنْ وَجَدَ لُقَطَةً فَلْيُشْهِدْ ذَا عَدْلٍ - أَوْ ذَوَىْ عَدْلٍ - وَلاَ يَكْتُمْ وَلاَ يُغَيِّبْ فَإِنْ وَجَدَ صَاحِبَهَا فَلْيَرُدَّهَا عَلَيْهِ وَإِلاَّ فَهُوَ مَالُ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يُؤْتِيهِ مَنْ يَشَاءُ " .
Musaddad narrated to us; Khalid, meaning al-Tahhan, narrated to us; and Musa ibn Ismail narrated to us; Wuhayb narrated to us, in meaning, from Khalid al-Hadhdha, from Abu al-Ala, from Mutarrif—meaning Ibn Abdullah—from Iyad ibn Himar, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever finds lost property should have one or two trustworthy people witness it, and should neither conceal it nor hide it. If he finds its owner, let him return it to him; otherwise, it is the property of Allah, Mighty and Majestic, which He gives to whomever He wills.
