Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 5235 — A man came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ رِشْدِينَ الْمِصْرِيُّ، ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ، ثنا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، أَنَّ رَبِيعَةَ بْنَ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، حَدَّثَهُ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ، مَوْلَى الْمُنْبَعِثِ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ، قَالَ: أَتَى رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَنَا مَعَهُ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، اللُّقَطَةُ، فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «عَرِّفْهَا سَنَةً، فَإِنْ لَمْ يَأْتِ لَهَا طَالِبٌ فَاسْتَنْفِقْهَا»
فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، فَكَيْفَ تَرَى فِي ضَالَّةِ الْغَنَمِ؟ قَالَ: «هِيَ لَكَ أَوْ لِأَخِيكَ أَوْ لِلذِّئْبِ»
قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، فَكَيْفَ تَرَى فِي ضَالَّةِ الْإِبِلِ؟ قَالَ: فَغَضِبَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى احْمَرَّ وَجْهُهُ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «مَا لَكَ وَلَهَا؟ مَعَهَا حِذَاؤُهَا وَسِقَاؤُهَا، وَتَرِدُ الْمَاءَ وَتَأْكُلُ الشَّجَرَ، حَتَّى يَلْقَاهَا رَبُّهَا»
Sayyiduna Zayd bin Khalid al-Juhani (may Allah be pleased with him) said: A man came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) while I was with him (peace and blessings be upon him), and he said: O Messenger of Allah, tell me about a found item (luqatah). The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: "Announce it for one year; if no one comes seeking it, spend it."
He said: O Messenger of Allah, what is your view about a stray sheep? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It is for you, or for your brother, or for the wolf."
He said: O Messenger of Allah, what is your view about a stray camel? At this the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) became angry until his (peace and blessings be upon him) face turned red, then he said: "What have you to do with it? It has its feet and its water-skin with it; it goes to the water and eats from the trees until its owner finds it."
