في الرجل يلتقط الصبي فينفق عليه
A man who picks up an abandoned child and spends on him
Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 22447 — A man who picks up an abandoned child
٢٢٤٤٧ - حدثنا أبو بكر قال: حدثنا حاتم بن إسماعيل عن جعفر عن أبيه عن علي قال: (المنبوذ) (١) حر، وإن طلب الذي رباه نفقته وكان موسرا رد عليه، وإن لم يكن موسرا كان ما أنفق عليه صدقة (٢).
Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: A found child is free. If the person who raised the child demands his expenses, then if the child (having grown up) is wealthy, he must pay them back to him, and if the child is not wealthy, what that person spent on him is charity.
