[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ who said: "Whoever finds a lost item, like a small piece of clothing or its equivalent, let him announce it for three days. And whoever finds more than that, let him announce it for six days. If the owner comes forward, then he should return it to him. Otherwise, he should give it in charity. If the owner comes forward later on, then let him inform him."

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ مَنِ الْتَقَطَ لُقَطَةً يَسِيرَةً ثَوْبًا أَوْ شِبْهَهُ فَلْيُعَرِّفْهُ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَمَنِ الْتَقَطَ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ سِتَّةَ أَيَّامٍ فَإِنْ جَاءَ صَاحِبُهَا وَإِلَّا فَلْيَتَصَدَّقْ بِهَا فَإِنْ جَاءَ صَاحِبُهَا فَلْيُخْبِرْهُ

"مَنْ الْتَقَطَ لُقَطَةً يَسِيرَةً: ثَوبٌ أَوْ شبْهُه فَليُعَرِّفْه ثَلاثة أَيَّام، وَمَنْ الْتَقَطَ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ فَليُعَرِّفْهُ سَبْعَةَ أَيَّام، فَإِن جَاءَ صَاحِبُها، وَإِلا فَليَتَصَدَّقْ بِهَا، فَإِنْ جَاءَ صَاحِبُها فَليُخْبِرْه".
