Prohibition of Whispering to Sadden a Third Person
Hadith 109
109 - حَدَّثَنَا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ، ثنا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ يَبْلُغُ بِهِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّي اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «لَا يَتَنَاجَي اثْنَانِ دُونَ الثَّالِثِ فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ يُحْزِنُهُ»
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: He learned of this statement of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him): "Two people should not converse in whispers excluding a third, for this will cause (the third person) grief."
