The ruling on giving the clothes of the washing-house owners to other people by mistake
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Yes, indeed.
The questioner : Sometimes the washers notice in the handling of the cups that one person gives to another. Yes. And does the one who gives after being given the death of the man who is lost?
The Shaykh : If he made a mistake, he is liable for compensation. This is part of his handling. The second garment that its owner took in exchange remains until it is returned, and if he loses hope of finding it and does not know it, he sells it and gives its value in charity.
