Disposing of abandoned items in university housing

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner asks, saying: I am a student at the Islamic University, and I found items in my room after my return from the honorary leave. More than three years have passed, and no one has claimed them, and I do not know who they belong to. What should I do with these items?

Answer:
If the housing belongs to the university, consult the officials responsible for university housing and inform them about these items. However, if the housing is outside the university, and you rented a residence outside the university, you must ask the landlord who occupied this room or this apartment before you, as their names will be with him. Then contact them, inform them about these items, and take their opinion on them. Take their opinion on them. Yes.
