Hadith 767

حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ كَاسِبٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ ، أَخْبَرَنِي حَيْوَةُ بْنُ شُرَيْحٍ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْأَسَدِيِّ أَبِي الْأَسْوَدِ ، عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ مَوْلَى شَدَّادِ بْنِ الْهَادِ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ، يَقُولُ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : " مَنْ سَمِعَ رَجُلًا يَنْشُدُ ضَالَّةً فِي الْمَسْجِدِ ، فَلْيَقُلْ لَا رَدَّ اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ ، فَإِنَّ الْمَسَاجِدَ لَمْ تُبْنَ لِهَذَا " .
´It was narrated from Abu 'Abdullah, the freed slave of Shaddad bin Had that:` He heard Abu Hurairah say: "I heard the Messenger of Allah say: 'Whoever hears a man making a lost-and-found announcement in the mosque, let him say: "May Allah not return it to you!" For the mosques were not built for that.'"

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.
