"عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: هَذهِ فِتْنَةٌ قَدِ اطَّلَعَتْ كَقِطَعِ اللَّيْل الْمُظْلِم كُلَّمَا ذَهَبَ مِنْهَا رَسْلٌ بَدَا رَسْلٌ آخَر، يَمُوتُ فِيهَا قَلْبُ الرَّجُل كَمَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا بَدَنُهُ، يُصْبحُ الرَّجُلُ فيَهَا مُؤْمِنًا وَيُمْسِى كَافِرًا، وَيُمْسِى مُؤْمِنًا وَيُصْبحُ كَافِرًا، يَبيعُ فيهَا أقْوَامٌ دِينَهُمْ بعَرَضٍ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا قَلِيلٍ".

"From Ibn Mas'ud, he said: This is a trial that has appeared like pieces of the dark night. Whenever one wave of it passes, another wave appears. A man's heart dies in it just as his body dies. A man will be a believer in the morning and a disbeliever in the evening, and a believer in the evening and a disbeliever in the morning. Some people will sell their religion for a small amount of worldly goods."
