Narrated from Sayyiduna Jarud (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: We were on a journey with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), there was a shortage of mounts, and people were discussing about mounts. I said: O Messenger of Allah! I know how we can get mounts. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: How is that? I said: There are camels in the flowing water area (of Madinah), we can benefit by riding them. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: No, a Muslim’s lost property is like a burning flame of fire, so never go near it; a Muslim’s lost property is like a burning flame of fire, so never go near it; a Muslim’s lost property is like a burning flame of fire, so never go near it. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said regarding a fallen item: When you find a lost item, be sure to announce it and do not hide it nor conceal it; if it is recognized, return it to the concerned person, otherwise it is the property of Allah Almighty, He gives it to whomever He wills.
