Question:
If you find a lost item that is not written about and does not attract the attention of the average people, is it better for me to take it, or leave it out of scrupulousness, or give it in charity?
Answer:
What does not attract the attention of the average people is permissible for you to take. You may take it if you wish, or you may leave it and let someone else take it. It is not a lost item; this is not a lost item.
