[Machine] I heard Ash-Shafi'i saying that Malik and Abu Yusuf gathered before the Commander of the Believers and they talked about al-wuquf (the act of standing) and what restrains people from it. Ya'qub said, "This is false." Shurayh said, "Muhammad ﷺ came with the complete abolition of restraint." Malik said, "Muhammad ﷺ came with the abolition of what they used to restrain for their idols, such as al-bahirah (sacrificial animal set free to roam) and as-sa'ibah (camel released for idols while they perform Hajj)." As for al-wuquf, this is the act of 'Umar ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) when he sought permission from the Prophet ﷺ who said, "Restrain its trunk and let its fruit fall." And this is the act of az-Zubayr. The Caliph was amazed by that, and Ya'qub remained unconvinced.  

سَمِعْتُ الشَّافِعِيَّ يَقُولُ اجْتَمَعَ مَالِكٌ وَأَبُو يُوسُفَ عِنْدَ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَتَكَلَّمَا فِي الْوُقُوفِ وَمَا يَحْبِسُهُ النَّاسُ فَقَالَ يَعْقُوبُ هَذَا بَاطِلٌ قَالَ شُرَيْحٌ جَاءَ مُحَمَّدٌ ﷺ بِإِطْلَاقِ الْحَبْسِ فَقَالَ مَالِكٌ إِنَّمَا جَاءَ مُحَمَّدٌ ﷺ بِإِطْلَاقِ مَا كَانُوا يَحْبِسُونَهُ لِآلِهَتِهِمْ مِنَ الْبَحِيرَةِ وَالسَّائِبَةِ فَأَمَّا الْوُقُوفُ فَهَذَا وَقْفُ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ حَيْثُ اسْتَأْذَنَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ احْبِسْ أَصْلَهَا وَسَبِّلْ ثَمَرَتَهَا وَهَذَا وَقْفُ الزُّبَيْرِ فَأَعْجَبَ الْخَلِيفَةَ ذَلِكَ مِنْهُ وَبَقِيَ يَعْقُوبُ
