“Abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ’Findings are of two kinds. The findings, in al-Haram (the sacred area), are publicized for one year.

If the owner comes it is his; otherwise, it is like one’s own belongings.’”

“This is concerning my question before abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about the case of a woman whom I meet in the wilderness and I ask her if she has a husband and she says, ‘No; I do not have a husband’ if I can marry her. He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, her words about herself are accepted as true.’”

“Once abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), was asked about the case of a man who married a woman without witness. He (the Imam) said, ‘It is not unlawful at all between him and Allah. Witness in marriage is for the sake of children, if that is not the concern then it is not unlawful.’”

It is not his opinion but is something that has reached him from Ali (a.s.).”’
