It was narrated from Ibn 'Umar (رضي الله عنهما) — via Yahya, from al-A'mash, from Abu Salih — from the Prophet ﷺ — that he said: 'When you are three, two of you must not hold a private conversation to the exclusion of their companion.' He said: 'We asked: What if there are four?' He said: 'Then it would not matter.'
