Disposing of a debt whose owner is unknown

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner says: I have a debt and I could not find its owner, because I traveled from the creditor's country, and I instructed more than one person to look for him, but they did not find him. What is required of me?

Answer:
You must make an announcement. Announce that whoever has a right against so-and-so should come forward. Announce it first. Yes.
