Narrated Abu Qatada:
The Prophet said, “A good dream is from Allah, and a bad or evil dream is from Satan; so if anyone

with Allah from its evil, for then it will not harm him.”

Volume 4 Book 53 Hadith 370

Volume 4, Book 53, Number 370:
Narrated Abu Qatada:
We set out in the company of Allah’s Apostle on the day (of the battle) of Hunain. When we faced
the enemy, the Muslims retreated and I saw a pagan throwing himself over a Muslim. I turned
around and came upon him from behind and hit him on the shoulder with the sword He (i.e. the pa –
gan) came towards me and seized me so violently that I felt as if it were death itself, but death over –
took him and he released me. I followed ‘Umar bin Al Khattab and asked (him), “What is wrong with
the people (fleeing)?” He replied, “This is the Will of Allah,” After the people returned, the Prophet sat
and said, “Anyone who has killed an enemy and has a proof of that, will posses his spoils.” I got up

and said, “Who will be a witness for me?” and then sat down. The Prophet again said, “Anyone who
has killed an enemy and has proof of that, will possess his spoils.” I (again) got up and said, “Who will
be a witness for me?” and sat down. Then the Prophet said the same for the third time. I again got up,
and Allah’s Apostle said, “O Abu Qatada! What is your story?” Then I narrated the whole story to him.
A man (got up and) said, “O Allah’s Apostle! He is speaking the truth, and the spoils of the killed man
are with me. So please compensate him on my behalf.” On that Abu Bakr As-Siddiq said, “No, by Al –
lah, he (i.e. Allah’s Apostle ) will not agree to give you the spoils gained by one of Allah’s Lions who
fights on the behalf of Allah and His Apostle.” The Prophet said, “Abu Bakr has spoken the truth.” So,
Allah’s Apostle gave the spoils to me. I sold that armor (i.e. the spoils) and with its price I bought a
garden at Bani Salima, and this was my first property which I gained after my conversion to Islam.

Narrated Abu Qatada:
That he was in the company of Allah’s Apostle and when they had covered a portion of the road to
Mecca, he and some of the companions lagged behind. The latter were in a state of Ihram, while he
was not. He saw an onager and rode his horse and requested his companions to give him his lash but
they refused. Then he asked them to give him his spear but they refused, so he took it himself, at –
tacked the onager, and killed it. Some of the companions of the Prophet ate of it while some others
refused to eat. When they caught up with Allah’s Apostle they asked him about that, and he said,
“That was a meal Allah fed you with.” (It is also said that Allah’s Apostle asked, “Have you got some –
thing of its meat?”)

Volume 3 Book 29 Hadith 49

Volume 3, Book 29, Number 49:
Narrated Abu Qatada:
We were in the company of the Prophet at a place called Al-Qaha (which is at a distance of three
stages of journey from Medina). Abu Qatada narrated through another group of narrators: We were
in the company of the Prophet at a place called Al-Qaha and some of us had assumed Ihram while
the others had not. I noticed that some of my companions were watching something, so I looked up
and saw an onager. (I rode my horse and took the spear and whip) but my whip fell down (and I
asked them to pick it up for me) but they said, “We will not help you by any means as we are in a
state of Ihram.” So, I picked up the whip myself and attacked the onager from behind a hillock and
slaughtered it and brought it to my companions. Some of them said, “Eat it.” While some others said,
“Do not eat it.” So, I went to the Prophet who was ahead of us and asked him about it, He replied, “Eat
it as it is Halal (i.e. it is legal to eat it).”
