"عَنِ وَاصِل مَوْلَى ابْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ قَالَ: دَفَعَ إِلَىِّ يَحْيَى بْنُ عقيلٍ صَحِيَفَةً فَقَالَ: هَذِهِ خُطْبَةُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ أُنْبِئْتُ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُهَا فِى كُلِّ عَشِيَّةِ خَمِيسٍ لأَصْحَابِهِ، فِيهَا: أَنَّهُ سَيَأتِى عَلَى النَّاسِ زَمَانٌ تُحَاتُ فِيه الصَّلاةُ وَيُشْرَفُ فِيه البُنْيَانُ، وَيَكْثُرُ فِيهِ الْخُلْفُ وَالتَّلاعُنُ، وَيَفْشُو فِيه الرِّشَا وَالزِّنَا، تُبَاعُ الآخِرةُ بالدُّنْيَا، فَإِذَا رَأَيْتَ ذَلِكَ، فَالنَّجَاءَ النَّجَاءَ، قِيلَ: وَكَيْفَ النَّجاءُ؟ قَالَ: قَالَ (كُنْ) () حِلْسًا مِنْ أَحْلاسِ بَيْتِكَ، وَكَفَّ لِسَانَكَ وَيَدَكَ".

"From Wasil, the client of Ibn 'Uyaynah, who said: Yahya ibn 'Aqil gave me a sheet and said: This is the sermon of Abdullah ibn Mas'ud. I have been informed that he used to deliver it to his companions every Thursday evening. In it: Indeed there will come upon the people a time when prayer will be neglected, buildings will be raised high, disputes and mutual cursing will increase, bribery and fornication will spread, and the Hereafter will be sold for the world. When you see that, then hasten to salvation. It was said: And how is salvation? He said: Be a mat of your house's mats, and restrain your tongue and your hand."
