It is narrated from Hazrat Suwaid bin Ghaflah that I, Zaid bin Suhan, and Hazrat Salman bin Rabee’ah set out on a journey until we reached the place of ‘Adheeb. There, I picked up a whip that was lying on the ground. Both of them said to me,“Throw it away,”but I refused. When I came to Madinah, I presented myself before Hazrat Ubayy bin Ka’b (may Allah be pleased with him) and asked him about this matter. He (may Allah be pleased with him) said:“I once found a hundred dinars during the time of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). When I mentioned them to the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he said: ‘Announce it for one year. If the owner comes, hand it over to him; otherwise, make sure you recognize the number of dinars, the pouch, the container, etc., very well. Then you are like the owner’s path (i.e., previously he picked up the money from the road, but now he will take it from you).’”
