Sunan Abi Dawud 1704

Translation

A man asked the Messenger of Allah (SWAS) about a find. He said: Make the matter known for a year, then note its string and its container and then use it for your purpose. Then if its owner comes, give it to him. He asked: Messenger of Allah, what about a stray sheep? He replied: Take it; that is for you, or for your brother, or for the wolf. He again asked: Messenger of Allah, What about stray camels? The Messenger of Allah (SWAS) became angry so much so that his cheeks became red or ( the narrator is doubtful) his face became red. He replied: What have you to do with them? They have with them their feet and their stomachs (for drink) till their master comes to him.

  يرويه ربيعة بن أبي عبد الرحمن واختلف عنه عن يزيد مولى المنبعث عن أبي هريرة عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم وخالفه الليث بن سعد فقال حدثني من أرضى عن إسماعيل بن أمية عن ربيعة وغيره عن مولى المنبعث عن رجل من أصحاب النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم عن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم والمحفوظ عن ربيعة عن يزيد مولى المنبعث عن زيد بن خالد الجهني عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم

  machine translationRabīʿah b. Abī ʿAbd al-Raḥmān narrates it, and there is disagreement concerning him about it, from Yazīd, the freed slave of al-Munbaʿith, from Abū Hurayrah, from the Prophet ﷺ. Al-Layth b. Saʿd contradicted him and said: "Someone with whom I am satisfied narrated to me, from Ismāʿīl b. Umayyah, from Rabīʿah and others, from the freed slave of al-Munbaʿith, from a man from among the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ, from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ." The preserved (maḥfūẓ) version is from Rabīʿah, from Yazīd, the freed slave of al-Munbaʿith, from Zayd b. Khālid al-Juhanī, from the Prophet ﷺ. Report a problem
