[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The lost property of a Muslim is the burning of the fire, the lost property of a Muslim is the burning of the fire, the lost property of a Muslim is the burning of the fire; do not approach it." A man asked, "O Messenger of Allah, what if we find it?" He said, "Announce it and do not hide it or conceal it, and if its owner comes, then return it to him; otherwise, it belongs to Allah, and He gives it to whoever He wills."  

الدارمي:٢٦٤٤أَخْبَرَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ أَنْبَأَنَا الْجُرَيْرِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي الْعَلَاءِ عَنْ أَبِي مُسْلِمٍ الْجَذْمِيِّ عَنْ الْجَارُودِ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «ضَالَّةُ الْمُسْلِمِ حَرَقُ النَّارِ ضَالَّةُ الْمُسْلِمِ حَرَقُ النَّارِ ضَالَّةُ الْمُسْلِمِ حَرَقُ النَّارِ لَا تَقْرَبَنَّهَا» قَالَ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ اللُّقَطَةُ نَجِدُهَا قَالَ «أَنْشِدْهَا وَلَا تَكْتُمْ وَلَا تُغَيِّبْ وَإِنْ جَاءَ رَبُّهَا فَادْفَعْهَا إِلَيْهِ وَإِلَّا فَمَالُ اللَّهِ يُؤْتِيهِ مَنْ يَشَاءُ»

[Machine] A man said, "O Messenger of Allah, should I try to find the lost item?" He replied, "Search for it and do not hide it or conceal it. If you find its owner, return it to him. Otherwise, the property of Allah is given to whomever He wills."

رَجُلٌ يَا رَسُولًَ اللهِ اللُّقَطَةُ نَجِدُهَا؟ قَالَ انْشُدْهَا وَلَا تَكْتُمْ وَلَا تُغِيِّبْ فَإِنْ وَجَدْتَ رَبِّهَا فَادْفَعْهَا إِلَيْهِ وَإِلَّا فَمَالُ اللهِ يُؤْتِيهِ مَنْ يَشَاءُ

[Machine] We were with the Prophet ﷺ on a journey, and at noon, there were only a few of us. The people started discussing the noon prayer among themselves, so I said, "O Messenger of Allah, we pass by some shady places during the noon time. Can we take advantage of their shade?" He said, "No, for the lost camel of a Muslim is more valuable to him than the fire. The lost camel of a Muslim is more valuable to him than the fire. The lost camel of a Muslim is more valuable to him than the fire." He repeated this three times and then said, "And if you find a piece of wood to burn, then light it up, but do not hide it or keep it concealed. If you find its owner, give it to him, otherwise, it is the property of Allah and He directs it to whomever He wills."

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The lost property of a Muslim is the fire, so do not approach it." And he said: "If you find lost property, then announce it and do not hide it or conceal it. If you know the owner, then return it to him, if not, then it is for Allah to give it to whom He wills."
