"مَنْ الْتَقَطَ لُقَطَةً يَسِيرَةً: ثَوبٌ أَوْ شبْهُه فَليُعَرِّفْه ثَلاثة أَيَّام، وَمَنْ الْتَقَطَ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ فَليُعَرِّفْهُ سَبْعَةَ أَيَّام، فَإِن جَاءَ صَاحِبُها، وَإِلا فَليَتَصَدَّقْ بِهَا، فَإِنْ جَاءَ صَاحِبُها فَليُخْبِرْه".

"Whoever picks up a small lost item, such as a garment or the like, let him announce it for three days. Whoever picks up more than that, let him announce it for seven days. If its owner comes, (let him return it); otherwise let him give it in charity. If its owner comes afterward, let him inform him."
