Yahya related to me from Malik that Yahya ibn Said said, "I have
heard that the first of the actions of a slave to be considered on the
day of rising is the prayer. If it is accepted from him, the rest of
his actions will be considered, and if it is not accepted from him,
none of his actions will be considered."
Muwatta Malik Book 9, Hadith 98

Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said that Abdullah
ibn Masud said to a certain man, "You are in a time when men of
understanding (fuqaha) are many and Quran reciters are few, when the
limits of behaviour defined in the Quran are guarded and its letters
are lost, when few people ask and many give, when they make the prayer
long and the khutba short, and put their actions before their desires.
A time will come upon men when their fuqaha are few but their Quran
reciters are many, when the letters of the Quran are guarded
carefully but its limits are lost, when many ask but few give, when
they make the khutba long but the prayer short, and put their desires
before their actions."

done most constantly."
