اتَّفَقَتْ رِوَايَةُ زَيْدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ وَعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، عَلَى تَعْرِيفِ اللُّقَطَةِ سَنَةً وَاحِدَةً، وَقَدْ مَضَتِ الرِّوَايَةُ عَنْهُمَا، وَكَذَلِكَ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَعَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَأَمَّا حَدِيثُ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ كُهَيْلٍ عَنْ سُوَيْدِ بْنِ غَفَلَةَ، عَنْ أُبِيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَرِوَايَةُ الْأَعْمَشِ وَزَيْدِ بْنِ أَبِي أُنَيْسَةَ وَحَمَّادٍ عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ كُهَيْلٍ تَدُلُّ عَلَى أَنَّهُ يُعَرِّفُهَا ثَلَاثَةَ أَحْوَالٍ. وَرُوِّينَا عَنْ شُعْبَةَ عَنْ سَلَمَةَ كَذَلِكَ، قَالَ شُعْبَةُ: فَلَقِيتُهُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ بِمَكَّةَ، فَقَالَ: لَا أَدْرِي ثَلَاثَةَ أَحْوَالٍ أَوْ حَوْلًا وَاحِدًا.
The narrations of Sayyiduna Zayd bin Khalid al-Juhani and Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with them both) from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) agree that lost property (luqatah) is to be announced for one year. This narration from both of them has already passed, and likewise (it is narrated) from Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and from Uqbah bin Suwayd from his father from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
As for the hadith of Salamah bin Kuhayl from Suwayd bin Ghafalah, from Sayyiduna Ubayy bin Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him), from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), the narration of al-A'mash, Zayd bin Abi Unaysah and Hammad from Salamah bin Kuhayl indicates that he is to announce it for three years.
And it has reached us likewise from Shu'bah from Salamah. Shu'bah (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "Then after that I met him (Salamah) in Makkah, and he said: 'I do not know whether (he said) three years or one year.'"
