The ruling on one who stole before reaching puberty and does not know the owners

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, a man used to steal before reaching puberty. How can he now get rid of this, given that he does not know the owners from whom he stole?

Answer:
If he knows them, he must return their rights to them or seek their forgiveness. If he does not know them, he must give charity in the amount he took, with the intention of getting rid of it, and the reward for the owners.
