1697 Abu Hurairah (radiyallahu anhu) said: The Messenger of Allah said, “When you see someone buying or selling in the mosque, say to him: `La arbaha-Allahu tijarataka (May Allah not make your bargain profitable)!’ When you see someone announcing something lost in it, say: `May Allah not restore it to you!”’[At-Tirmidhi].
1698 Buraidah (radiyallahu anhu) said: A man announced (the loss of his camel) in the mosque, uttering these words: “Has any one seen my red camel?” Upon this the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “May it not be restored to you!
