Mishkat al-Masabih #2911
Business Transactions
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَعَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ آوَى ضَالَّةً فَهُوَ ضَالٌّ مَا لم يعرفهَا» . رَوَاهُ مُسلم
He reported God’s Messenger as saying, “He who gives refuge to a stray is astray himself as long as he does not make the matter known.”
Muslim transmitted it.
