حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ يَزِيدَ مَوْلَى الْمُنْبَعِثِ
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ سُئِلَ عَنْ ضَالَّةِ الْغَنَمِ فَقَالَ خُذْهَا فَإِنَّمَا هِيَ لَكَ أَوْ لأَخِيكَ أَوْ لِلذِّئْبِ وَسُئِلَ عَنْ ضَالَّةِ الإِبِلِ فَغَضِبَ وَاحْمَرَّتْ وَجْنَتَاهُ وَقَالَ مَا لَكَ وَلَهَا مَعَهَا الْحِذَاءُ وَالسِّقَاءُ تَشْرَبُ الْمَاءَ وَتَأْكُلُ الشَّجَرَ حَتَّى يَلْقَاهَا رَبُّهَا وَسُئِلَ عَنِ اللُّقَطَةِ فَقَالَ اعْرِفْ وِكَاءَهَا وَعِفَاصَهَا وَعَرِّفْهَا سَنَةً فَإِنْ جَاءَ مَنْ يَعْرِفُهَا وَإِلاَّ فَاخْلِطْهَا بِمَالِكَ

(the Maula of Munba'ith) The Prophet ﷺ was asked regarding the case of a lost sheep. He said, "You should take it, because it is for you, or for your brother, or for the wolf." Then he was asked about a lost camel. He got angry and his face became red and he said (to the questioner), "You have nothing to do with it; it has its feet and its water container with it; it can go on drinking water and eating trees till its owner meets it." And then the Prophet ﷺ was asked about a Luqata (money found by somebody). He said, "Remember and recognize its tying material and its container, and make public announcement about it for one year. If somebody comes and identifies it (then give it to him), otherwise add it to your property."

Abī ʿAbd al-Raḥmān — Sufyān said: and I did not memorize anything else from him besides this — and I said: What is your view of the ḥadīth of Yazīd, the freedman of al-Munbaʿith, concerning the matter of the stray animal? Is it from Zayd b. Khālid? He said: Yes. Yaḥyā said: And Rabīʿah says, from Yazīd, the freedman of al-Munbaʿith, from Zayd b. Khālid. Sufyān said: Then I met Rabīʿah and I said to him:
