"عن عمرو بن دينار، وعبيد اللَّه بن أَبى يزيد، قَالا: لم يكنْ على عهدِ النبىِّ ﷺ عَلَى بيت النبى ﷺ حائطٌ، فكانَ أَوَّلَ من بنَى عليهِ جدارًا عمرُ بنُ الخطابِ، يقول حِينَ خَرجَ معاذ إلى الشام: لقد أحل خروجه بالمدينة وأهلها في الفقه وما كان يفتيهم به، ولقد كنت كلمتُ أبا بكر -رحمه اللَّه- أن يُجْلسه لِحاجةِ الناس إِليه، فأبى علىَّ وقال: رجلٌ أراد وجهًا يريدُ الشهادة فلا أَحْبِسُه، فقلت: واللَّه إن الرجلَ ليُرْزَقُ الشهادةَ وهو على فرسهِ، وفى بيتهِ عظيم الفنا عن مصره، قال كعب بن مالك: وكان معاذُ ابن جبل يُفتى الناس بالمدينةِ في حياةِ رسول اللَّه ﷺ، وأبى بكر".

"From 'Amr ibn Dinar and 'Ubayd Allah ibn Abi Yazid, who both said: During the time of the Prophet ﷺ there was no wall around the house of the Prophet ﷺ. The first to build a wall around it was 'Umar ibn al-Khattab. He said when Mu'adh set out for al-Sham: 'He has indeed left Madinah and its people without his jurisprudence and the rulings he used to give them. I had spoken to Abu Bakr (may Allah have mercy on him) that he should keep him for the people's need of him, but he refused me and said: 'A man who wants to go out seeking martyrdom, I will not hold him back.' I said: 'By Allah, a man may be granted martyrdom while on his horse, and in his house, he is greatly in need of his guidance.'' Ka'b ibn Malik said: Mu'adh ibn Jabal used to give legal rulings to the people in Madinah during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and [during the time of] Abu Bakr."
