Are the internal parts of camels, such as the liver and the stomach, invalidators of the ablution?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: Do the parts of a camel, such as its liver, stomach, and spleen, invalidate the ablution like its meat?

Answer:
By Allah, this is a matter that requires consideration. The Hanbali jurists say no; they say that the meat of the stomach, the intestines, and the liver is not called meat in the linguistic sense. If you were to make a will or appoint an agent to buy you meat, and he bought you from these items, the agency would not be fulfilled. Meat is restricted to what is outside the body cavity and the liver. Yes, and Allah knows best. The one who wants to perform ablution out of precaution is better off doing so. Yes.
