Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: In a past lesson, we discussed the prohibition of taking the lost property of Makkah and al-Madinah. He says:
Answer:
Except for the one who calls out for it; it is not a prohibition like that of rain for one who takes it and commits to identifying it and calling out for it until he finds its owner, in which case there is no harm. But if he knows from himself that he will not do this, he leaves it. Yes.
