"عَنِ عَلْقَمَة قَالَ: سُئِلَ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ عَنْ الَعزْلِ فَقَالَ: لَوْ أَخَذَ اللهُ مِيثَاقَ نَسَمَةٍ مِنْ صُلْبِ آدَمَ ثُمَّ أَفْرَغَهُ عَلَى صَفَا لأَخْرَجَهُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ الصَّفَا فَإنْ شِئْتَ فَاعْزِلْ، وَإنْ شِئْت فَلا تَعْزِلْ".

"From 'Alqamah who said: Ibn Mas'ud was asked about 'azl (coitus interruptus), and he said: If Allah took the covenant of a soul from the loins of Adam and then poured it onto a rock, He would bring it out from that rock. So if you wish, practise 'azl, and if you wish, do not practise 'azl."
