The ruling on finding a sum of money in Muzdalifah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your Eminence, the questioner says: I found a sum of money worth one hundred riyals in Muzdalifah. What should I do with it?

Answer:
If this money is in a wallet or in a wrapper that has marks by which it is recognized, this is lost property that has the ruling of lost property. You announce it or hand it over to those responsible for lost items. And you tell them the place where you found it. But if this money has no mark by which it is recognized, such as paper money lying on the ground with no distinguishing marks from other money, then you give this money in charity. You give it to a needy person with the intention that the reward belongs to its owner. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you
