Ibn ‘Umar reported God’s Messenger as saying, "Three things should not be rejected:cushions, oil (duhn)* and milk.”Tirmidhi transmitted it, saying this is a gharib tradition. * It is said that by duhn he meant perfume. Duhn is used of oil or grease with which one anoints oneself. The point of the explanation of the meaning is evidently that a kind of scented oil is here intended.

Abu ‘Uthman an-Nahdi reported God’s Messenger as saying, "When one of you is given basil he must not reject it, for it has come forth from paradise.”Tirmidhi transmitted it in mursal form.

Jabir told that Bashir’s wife asked her husband* to give her son his slave and call God's Messenger as witness for her. He went to him and said, "The daughter of so and so has asked me to give her son my slave and said that I must call God’s Messenger as witness for her.”He asked whether the boy had brothers, and when he replied that he had, he asked whether he had given them all the same as he had given him. On being told that he had not, he said, "This is not good, and I will be a witness only for what is right.”* The literal translation is "Bashir's wife said:Give my son your slave.”This was presumably said to her husband. Muslim transmitted it.

Abu Huraira said that when God's Messenger was brought first fruits he saw him put them on his eyes and lips and then say, "0 God, as Thou hast shown us the first of it, show us the last of it.”He would then give them to any boys who were present. Baihaqi transmitted it in [Kitab] ad-Da'awat al-kabir.

Zaid b. Khalid told that when a man came to God's Messenger and asked him about a find he said,“Note what it is contained in and what it is tied with and make the matter known for a year. Then if its owner comes give it to him, otherwise you can do what you like with it.”He asked about stray sheep (or goats) and he replied,“You, your brother, or the wolf may have them.”He asked about stray camels and he replied,“What have you to do with them? They have their stomachs and their feet. They can go down to water and eat trees till their master finds them.”In a version by Muslim he said,“Make the matter known for a year, then note what it is contained in and what it is tied with and use it for your own purposes, but if its owner comes you must deliver it to him*.”* This tradition says that after a year the finder may do as he likes with the article, but that if the owner turns up later he must restore it to him, or give him an equivalent if he has disposed of it. (Bukhari and Muslim.)

He reported God’s Messenger as saying,“He who gives refuge to a stray is astray himself as long as he does not make the matter known.”Muslim transmitted it.

‘Abd ar-Rahman b. ‘Uthman at-Taimi said that God’s Messenger prohibited taking what a pilgrim has dropped. Muslim transmitted it.

‘Amr b. Shu'aib, on his father’s authority, said his grandfather told that God’s Messenger was asked about hanging fruit and said,“If a needy person takes some and does not take a supply away in his garment he is not to be blamed, but he who carries any of it away is to be fined twice the value and punished and he who steals any of it after it has been put in the place where dates are dried is to have his hand cut off if their value reaches the price of a shield*.”Regarding stray camels and sheep (Or 'goats') he mentioned the same as others have done. He said he was asked about finds and replied,“If it is in a frequented road and a large town make the matter known for a year and if its owner comes give it to him, but if he does not it belongs to you; but if it is in a place which has been waste from ancient times, or if it is hidden treasure belonging to the pre-Islamic period it is subject to payment of the fifth.”*The price of a shield in the Prophet’s time is said to have been a quarter of a dinar. Ten dirhams is also mentioned Nasa’i transmitted it. Abu Dawud transmitted from ‘Amr from“he was asked about finds”to the end.

Abu Sa'id al-Khudri said that ‘Ali b. Abu Talib found a dinar and after taking it to Fatima asked God’s Messenger about it. He replied that this was God’s provision, and God’s Messenger, ‘Ali and Fatima ate food which was bought with it. But afterwards a woman came crying out about the dinar and God’s Messenger said,“Pay the dinar, ‘Ali.”Abu Dawud transmitted it.

Al-Jarud reported God’s Messenger as saying,“A Muslim’s lost property is a cause of the flame of hell*.”* i.e. when the finder, wishing to keep the article, does not make public the fact that he has found it. Darimi transmitted it.
