Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah al-Harith bin Rib'i (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: On the night of Badr he guarded the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Allah! Protect Abu Qatadah just as he has protected Your Prophet this night."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Saghir, and its chain contains narrators whom I do not know.

With the same chain, this statement of Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) is reported. He says: The polytheists raided the milch camels of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and carried them off. I mounted and caught up with them, I overcame them and killed Mas'adah. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saw me, he said: "This is a successful face! O Allah, forgive him." He said these words three times, and then he gave me the belongings of Mas'adah as a reward.
