حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْجُشَمِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يَزِيدَ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَيْوَةُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ شُرَيْحٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الْأَسْوَدِ يَعْنِي مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ نَوْفَلٍ ، يَقُولُ : أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ مَوْلَى شَدَّادٍ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ، يَقُولُ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : " مَنْ سَمِعَ رَجُلًا يَنْشُدُ ضَالَّةً فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَلْيَقُلْ : لَا أَدَّاهَا اللَّهُ إِلَيْكَ ، فَإِنَّ الْمَسَاجِدَ لَمْ تُبْنَ لِهَذَا " .
Abu Hurairah reported: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying; if anyone hears a man crying out in the mosque about something he has lost, he should say: May Allah not restore it to you, for the mosque were not built for this.

473. Commentary:
It is permissible to make an announcement near the door outside the mosque. «ضالة» refers to a lost animal, while a lost object is called «ضائع». The same ruling applies to it. There is a difference of opinion among the scholars regarding making announcements in mosques about lost children. Some permit it, while others do not. However, in view of human dignity and compassion, there is room for permissibility in this matter, even though most scholars do not allow it.
