Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates this statement of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Two people should not converse secretly with each other, leaving out a third." The narrator states: Whenever Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) wanted to speak to someone in secret and there were three people present, he would call a fourth person.
