وَقَالَ طَاوُسٌ : عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " لَا يَلْتَقِطُ لُقَطَتَهَا إِلَّا مَنْ عَرَّفَهَا " وَقَالَ خَالِدٌ : عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " لَا تُلْتَقَطُ لُقَطَتُهَا إِلَّا لِمُعَرِّفٍ " .
And Tawus said, from Abdullah ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both), that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Only that person should pick up the lost property of Makkah who will make an announcement about it. And Khalid Hadhdha narrated, from Ikrimah, and from Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both), that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: It is only permissible to pick up the lost property of Makkah for the one who will also announce it.
وَقَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ : حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا زكَرِيَّاءُ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ دِينَارٍ ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " لَا يُعْضَدُ عِضَاهُهَا ، وَلَا يُنَفَّرُ صَيْدُهَا ، وَلَا تَحِلُّ لُقَطَتُهَا إِلَّا لِمُنْشِدٍ ، وَلَا يُخْتَلَى خَلَاهَا ، فَقَالَ عَبَّاسٌ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِلَّا الْإِذْخِرَ ؟ فَقَالَ : إِلَّا الْإِذْخِرَ " .
Narrated Ibn 'Abbas (ra): Allah's Messenger (saws) also said, "It (i.e., Makkah's) thorny bushes should not be uprooted and its game should not be chased, and picking up its fallen things is illegal except by him who makes public announcement about it, and its grass should not be cut." 'Abbas said, "O Allah's Messenger ! Except Idhkhir (a kind of grass)." The Prophet (saws) said, "Except Idhkhir."
