English translation

2496. It was narrated from 'Amr bin Shu'aib, from his father, that his grandfather said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ was asked about Al-Luqatah."[2] He said: "That which is found on a much-traveled road or in an inhabited village, announce it for a year. If its owner comes (and takes it, well and good), otherwise it is yours. That which was not found on a much-traveled road or in an inhabited village is subject to the Khums, as is Rikâz.”[1] (Hasan)

Arabic text

2494 - أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْأَخْنَسِ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، قَالَ: سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ اللُّقَطَةِ؟ فَقَالَ: «مَا كَانَ فِي طَرِيقٍ مَأْتِيٍّ أَوْ فِي قَرْيَةٍ عَامِرَةٍ فَعَرِّفْهَا سَنَةً، فَإِنْ جَاءَ صَاحِبُهَا وَإِلَّا فَلَكَ، وَمَا لَمْ يَكُنْ فِي طَرِيقٍ مَأْتِيٍّ وَلَا فِي قَرْيَةٍ عَامِرَةٍ فَفِيهِ وَفِي الرِّكَازِ الْخُمْسُ»

Commentary

A dominant majority of scholars like Imâms Mâlik, Ahmad, Shafi'i, and Al-Bukhârî (May Allâh have mercy upon them all) have fixed one-fortieth of it as its Zakâh considering it merchandise or trade goods. This is appropriate also.
