(Book 56, Hadith 13) #36868
The Importance of Inclusion in Conversations

SUMMARY: This hadith is about the importance of not excluding others from conversations.

Malik related to me from Abdullah ibn Dinar saying, "Abdullah ibn Umar and I were at the house of Khalid ibn Uqba who was away at the market. A man came who wanted to speak to Abdullah ibn Umar and I was the only other person present Abdullah ibn Umar called another man so that we were four and said to me and the man whom he had called, 'Go a little way off together, because I heard the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, say, "Two do not converse secretly to the exclusion of another'. "'
وَحَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ، قَالَ كُنْتُ أَنَا وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ، عِنْدَ دَارِ خَالِدِ بْنِ عُقْبَةَ الَّتِي بِالسُّوقِ فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ يُرِيدُ أَنْ يُنَاجِيَهُ وَلَيْسَ مَعَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ أَحَدٌ غَيْرِي وَغَيْرُ الرَّجُلِ الَّذِي يُرِيدُ أَنْ يُنَاجِيَهُ فَدَعَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ رَجُلاً آخَرَ حَتَّى كُنَّا أَرْبَعَةً فَقَالَ لِي وَلِلرَّجُلِ الَّذِي دَعَاهُ اسْتَأْخِرَا شَيْئًا فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ ‏ "‏ لاَ يَتَنَاجَى اثْنَانِ دُونَ وَاحِدٍ

QUICK LESSONS:
Include other people in your conversation instead of having private talks with just two people.

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith emphasizes the importance of including others in conversations. It was narrated by Malik ibn Anas and Abdullah ibn Dinar that they were at the house of Khalid ibn Uqba when a man came to speak to Abdullah ibn Umar. Since there were only two people present, Abdullah called another man so that there would be four people present. He said this was because he heard Prophet Muhammad say “Two do not converse secretly to the exclusion of another” which means it is important to include other people in conversations instead of having private conversations with just two people. This teaches us that we should always be respectful and considerate when talking with others and make sure everyone feels included in our conversations.
