لَهُ رَجُلٌ إِنِّي قَدْ أَصَبْتُ مَالًا وَ إِنِّي قَدْ خِفْتُ فِيهِ عَلَى نَفْسِي فَلَوْ أَصَبْتُ صَاحِبَهُ دَفَعْتُهُ إِلَيْهِ وَ تَخَلَّصْتُ مِنْهُ قَالَ لَهُ فَوَ اللَّهِ لَوْ أَصَبْتَهُ كُنْتَ تَدْفَعُ إِلَيْهِ قَالَ إِي وَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ع فَلَا وَ اللَّهِ مَا لَهُ صَاحِبٌ غَيْرِي قَالَ وَ اسْتَحْلَفَهُ أَنْ يَدْفَعَ إِلَى مَنْ يَأْمُرُهُ قَالَ فَحَلَفَ قَالَ اذْهَبْ فَاقْسِمْهُ فِي إِخْوَانِكَ وَ لَكَ الْأَمَانُ فِيمَا خِفْتَ قَالَ فَقَسَمَهُ بَيْنَ إِخْوَانِهِ.

Hadith.4063 - Al-Hajjal narrated from Dawud ibn Abi Yazid, from Abu Abdullah (as), who said: A man said to Imam (as): "I have come across some wealth, and I fear for my safety because of it. If I were to find its owner, I would return it to him and be free from it." Imam (as) said to him, "By Allah (swt), if you were to find its owner, would you truly return it to him?" The man replied: "Yes, by Allah (swt)." Imam (as) then said: "By Allah (swt), it has no owner other than me." Imam (as) then made the man swear to distribute it as Imam (as) instructed. The man swore, and Imam (as) said: "Go and distribute it among your brothers, and you are safe from what you feared." So, the man divided it among his brothers.
