[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked about a stray camel. He mentioned a hadith and then he was asked about a found object. He said, "Identify its quantity, container, and description, and announce it publicly. If its owner comes and identifies its quantity and description, then return it to him. Otherwise, it belongs to you." Abu Dawud said, "This addition was added by Hammam ibn Salamah in the hadith of Salamah ibn Kuhail, Yahya ibn Sa'id, Rabiah, and Ubaidullah. If its owner comes and identifies its description and container, then return it to him. It is not considered a preserved item." The sheikh said, "We have narrated it from Ath-Thawri from Salamah ibn Kuhail."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ سُئِلَ عَنْ ضَالَّةِ الْإِبِلِ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ قَالَ ثُمَّ سَأَلَهُ عَنِ اللُّقَطَةِ فَقَالَ اعْرِفْ عَدَدَهَا وَوِعَاءَهَا وَعِفَاصَهَا وَعَرِّفْهَا عَامًا فَإِنْ جَاءَ صَاحِبُهَا فَعَرَفَ عَدَدَهَا وَعِفَاصَهَا فَادْفَعْهَا إِلَيْهِ وَإِلَّا فَهِيَ لَكَ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَهَذِهِ الزِّيَادَةُ الَّتِي زَادَهَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ فِي حَدِيثِ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ كُهَيْلٍ وَيَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ وَرَبِيعَةَ وَعُبَيْدِ اللهِ إِنْ جَاءَ صَاحِبُهَا فَعَرَفَ عِفَاصَهَا وَوِكَاءَهَا فَادْفَعْهَا إِلَيْهِ لَيْسَتْ بِمَحْفُوظَةٍ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ قَدْ رُوِّينَاهُ عَنِ الثَّوْرِيِّ عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ كُهَيْلٍ
