If a Muslim Finds a Lost Item in a Public Place, Can They Keep It?

Beautifully clear answers on the topic of lost and found items from Shaykh AbdulAzeez bin Baaz, may Allah have mercy upon him. Many Muslims don't know the difference in the rulings between finding a valuable item versus finding a cheap item. If you found this explanation beneficial, share it with others so they may benefit also, so you may get the reward - because the one who guides to goodness gets the reward for whoever acts up on it.
