suyuti:2142a

“If a man loses something, or it is stolen from him, and he finds it in the possession of a man who bought it, then he has more right to it, and the one who bought it should ask for his money back from the one who sold it to him.' ” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2331)   

السيوطي:٢١٤٢a

"إِذَا ضاع للرّجلِ متاعٌ، أوْ سُرقَ لَهُ متاعٌ فَوَجَدَهُ بِيَدِ رجُلٍ يَبيعُه فَهُو أحقُّ بِه، ويرْجعُ المشْترى على البائِع بالثّمَن".
