Question:
May Allah reward you. Your Eminence, the father, the questioner says: I found fifty riyals next to my door on the sidewalk.
Answer:
On one side, next to my door on the sidewalk, and it is the norm that no one passes by my house except the household members. Should I announce the amount to my family and the neighbors adjacent to me, or should I give it in charity on behalf of its owner, or what should I do? Yes, announce it at your house and to your neighbors. If it turns out to belong to someone, give it to them; otherwise, give it in charity. Yes.
