“Ibn Mas'ud used to preach every Thursday and a man said to him, ‘Abu Abdur Rahman, I wish you would preach to us every day.’ He replied, ‘What stops me from doing so is the fear that I may tire you. I preach in the same style as the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, so that you do not get tired.”

Muslim with a chain up to Shakik, the son of Salamah who related this.
