He was mentioned by Ibn Munayyir in the Sahaba, and there is a difference of opinion.

Kathir ibn Zayd, from Khalid ibn al-Tufayl ibn Madrik al-Ghafari, reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent his grandfather Madrik to his daughter, saying: 'Bring her from Mecca.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ would say when he prostrated and bowed: 'O Allah, I seek refuge in Your pleasure from Your wrath, and in Your forgiveness from Your punishment, and in You from You.
