Question
I am currently a taxi driver. One guest lost his headphones in my car. I reported the lost item in the application with which he ordered the taxi. He never responded. The support of the application also never reacted. This is now more than one month ago. The value may be about 100€ or so. What should I do with the headphones?
Answer
Continue the endeavour to find the owner. You may bump into him. If you cannot locate him after one year, then you have two options. (1) Give the item to some poor Muslim or (2) Take it for yourself and give its monetary value to some poor Muslim. However, if after giving the Sadqah, you find the owner and if he demands his item, then you have to pay for it. You will then receive the reward of the Sadqah.
