Is it permissible to place a foundling in a home supervised by disbelievers in their lands?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if one finds a foundling, is it permissible for him to place it in a private home supervised by disbelievers in their lands?

Answer:
No, the disbelievers do not raise it, unless the majority of the country is disbelievers, in which case it is given the ruling of the disbelievers. But if the majority of the country is Muslims, it is a Muslim, and a disbeliever is not appointed as its guardian. Yes.
