Question:
Honorable Shaykh, how do you know that a lost item belongs to a non-Muslim under a treaty or to a Muslim?
Answer:
Yes, this is a pertinent question. You know it belongs to them if it is found in the district of the non-Muslims under a treaty, or in their residence, or at their place of work—the place where they gather for residence or work—because it is more likely that it belongs to them. Yes.
