Hadith.4050 - Ibn Mahbub narrated from Jamil ibn Salih, from Abu Abdullah (as), who said
I asked Imam (as) about a man who found a dinar in his house.
Imam (as) said: "Does anyone else enter his house?"
I said: "Yes, many people enter."
Imam (as) said: "Then it is considered lost property (luqata)."
I asked: "What about a man who found a dinar in his locked box?"
Imam (as) said: "Does anyone else put their hand into his box or place something in it?"
I said: "No."
Imam (as) said: "Then it belongs to him."
