It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: "On the day of Badr, every three of us were assigned to one camel (to ride in turns). Sayyiduna Abu Lubabah (may Allah be pleased with him) and Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) were the travelling companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), sharing his mount. He said: When it was the turn of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) to walk, the two of them would say: 'We will walk in your place.' And he (peace and blessings be upon him) would say: 'You two are not stronger than me, nor am I more independent of the reward than you two.'"
