5. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from al-Nawfaliy from al-Sakuniy who has said the following
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that ‘Amir al-Mu’minin would hold cleaners, jewelers and dyers liable as precautionary measure to protect the interests of the people; but he would not hold them liable for things burnt or drowned. When a ship drowned with its contents and people found things thrown on shore, it was for the people of the area because of their being more rightful in the case. Whatever people found by diving and the owner had abandoned, it was considered their things.’”
5- عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ النَّوْفَلِيِّ عَنِ السَّكُونِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ
كَانَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) يُضَمِّنُ الْقَصَّارَ وَالصَّبَّاغَ وَالصَّائِغَ احْتِيَاطاً عَلَى أَمْتِعَةِ النَّاسِ وَكَانَ لا يُضَمِّنُ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) مِنَ الْغَرَقِ وَالْحَرَقِ وَالشَّيْ‏ءِ الْغَالِبِ وَإِذَا غَرِقَتِ السَّفِينَةُ وَمَا فِيهَا فَأَصَابَهُ النَّاسُ فَمَا قَذَفَ بِهِ الْبَحْرُ عَلَى سَاحِلِهِ فَهُوَ لأهْلِهِ وَهُمْ أَحَقُّ بِهِ وَمَا غَاصَ عَلَيْهِ النَّاسُ وَتَرَكَهُ صَاحِبُهُ فَهُوَ لَهُمْ.
