Urdu Translation

سوید بن غفلہ کہتے ہیں کہ   میں زید بن صوحان اور سلمان بن ربیعہ کے ساتھ نکلا، جب ہم عذیب پہنچے تو میں نے وہاں ایک کوڑا پڑا ہوا پایا، ان دونوں نے مجھ سے کہا: اس کو اسی جگہ ڈال دو، لیکن میں نے ان کا کہا نہ مانا، پھر جب ہم مدینہ پہنچے، تو میں ابی بن کعب رضی اللہ عنہ کے پاس آیا، اور ان سے اس کا تذکرہ کیا، تو انہوں نے کہا: تم نے ٹھیک کیا، میں نے بھی رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کے عہد میں سو دینار پڑے پائے تھے تو میں نے آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم سے اس کے متعلق پوچھا، تو آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا: سال بھر تک اس کے مالک کا پتہ کرتے رہو ، میں پتا کرتا رہا، لیکن کسی کو نہ پایا جو انہیں پہچانتا ہو، پھر میں نے آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم سے پوچھا، تو آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا: اس کا تھیلا، بندھن اور اس کی تعداد یاد رکھو، پھر سال بھر اس کے مالک کا پتا کرتے رہو، اگر اس کا جا ننے والا آ جائے تو خیر، ورنہ وہ تمہارے مال کی طرح ہے ۱؎۔

It was narrated that Suwaid bin Ghafalah said: “I went out with Zaid bin Suhan and Salman bin Rabi'ah, and when we were at `Udhaib, I found a whip. They said to me: 'Throw it away,' but I refused. When we came to Al-Madinah I went to Ubayy bin Ka'b and told him about that. He said: 'You did the right thing. I found one hundred dinar that had been lost at the time of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and I asked him about it. He said, “Announce it for a year.” So I Announced it, and I did not find anyone who recognized it. He said: “Remember the features of its bag and strap, and how many it contains, then announce it for a year. If someone comes who describes it with those features, (give it to him), otherwise it is like your own property.”
