Hadith.2435 - Muhammad ibn Sinan narrated from Isma‘il ibn Jabir, who said: "I was with Abu Abdullah (as) in Mecca when a man from Medina came to him. Imam (as) asked the man: 'Who accompanied you?' The man replied: 'No one accompanied me.' Abu Abdullah (as) said to him: 'If I had instructed you beforehand, I would have taught you better manners.' Then Imam (as) said: 'One is with Satan, two are with two Satans, three are companions, and four are companions on a journey.'"
