Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ كُنْتُ مَعَ ابْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَا وَرَجُلٌ آخَرُ فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ اسْتَأْخِرَا فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ إِذَا كَانُوا ثَلَاثَةً فَلَا يَتَنَاجَى اثْنَانِ دُونَ وَاحِدٍ.
English Translation
Muhammad ibn Ja'far told us, Shu'bah told us, from Abdullah ibn Dinar: I was with Ibn Umar, myself and another man, when a man came. Ibn Umar said: Stand back, both of you, for the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: When there are three of you, two should not converse privately excluding the third.
