Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I moved to a new residence and found empty water bottles left by the person who lived there before. He says: I went ahead and used them. Is there any sin on me for that?

Answer:
As long as he left them, as long as he abandoned them, use them if they are fit for use. Yes.
