قَالَ لِي أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) أَخْبَرْتَ بِمَا أَخْبَرْتُكَ بِهِ أَحَداً قُلْتُ لَا إِلَّا سُلَيْمَانَ بْنَ خَالِدٍ قَالَ أَحْسَنْتَ أَ مَا سَمِعْتَ قَوْلَ الشَّاعِرِ. فَلَا يَعْدُوَنْ سِرِّي وَ سِرُّكَ ثَالِثاً أَلَا كُلُّ سِرٍّ جَاوَزَ اثْنَيْنِ شَائِعٌ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Al Hassan Bin Ali, from Marwan Bin Muslim, from Ammar who said, ‘Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> said to me: ‘Did you inform anyone with what I<sup>asws</sup> informed you with?’ I said, ‘No, except for Suleyman Bin Khalid’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘You have done well. Have you not heard the words of the poet – ‘Do not be repeating my secret and your secret to a third one! Indeed! Every secret exceeding two (has become) common (knowledge)’.
