"The Messenger of Allah was asked about Al-Luqath.[2] He said: "That which is found on a much-traveled road or in an inhabited village, announce it for a year. If its owner comes (and takes it, well and good), otherwise it is yours. That which was not found on a much-traveled road or in an inhabited village is subject to the Khuns, as is Rikaz."'[1]  

سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنِ اللُّقَطَةِ فَقَالَ مَا كَانَ فِي طَرِيقٍ مَأْتِيٍّ أَوْ فِي قَرْيَةٍ عَامِرَةٍ فَعَرِّفْهَا سَنَةً فَإِنْ جَاءَ صَاحِبُهَا وَإِلاَّ فَلَكَ وَمَا لَمْ يَكُنْ فِي طَرِيقٍ مَأْتِيٍّ وَلاَ فِي قَرْيَةٍ عَامِرَةٍ فَفِيهِ وَفِي الرِّكَازِ الْخُمْسُ

سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنِ اللُّقَطَةِ فَقَالَ «مَا كَانَ فِي طَرِيقٍ مَأْتِيٍّ أَوْ فِي قَرْيَةٍ عَامِرَةٍ فَعَرِّفْهَا سَنَةً فَإِنْ جَاءَ صَاحِبُهَا وَإِلَّا فَلَكَ وَمَا لَمْ يَكُنْ فِي طَرِيقٍ مَأْتِيٍّ وَلَا فِي قَرْيَةٍ عَامِرَةٍ فَفِيهِ وَفِي الرِّكَازِ الْخُمْسُ»  

[Machine] About the Messenger of Allah, it was asked about lost property. He said, "If it is found on a public road or in a central town, announce it to the people for a year, and if its owner comes, give it back to him, and if he does not come, it is yours. And if it is found in a ruin, it belongs to the finder, and if it is found in a well, it is subject to the one-fifth Islamic tax."  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنِ اللُّقَطَةِ فَقَالَ مَا كَانَ مِنْهَا فِي طَرِيقِ الْمِئْتَاءِ وَالْقَرْيَةِ الْجَامِعَةِ فَعَرِّفُوهَا سَنَةً فَإِنْ جَاءَ صَاحِبُهَا فَادْفَعْهَا إِلَيْهِ وَإِنْ لَمْ يَأْتِ فَهِيَ لَكَ وَمَا كَانَ فِي الْخَرَابِ فَفِيهَا وَفِي الرِّكَازِ الْخُمُسُ
