The ruling on praying in a place containing camel dung

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, sometimes we pray in the desert, and we find in our prayer spots dung that the flood has brought. Are you afraid of praying in such a place?

Answer:
What is the harm in that? Because this is not considered from the dung of camels [kept in a pen]. Even if there is dung from camels, or a camel passed by, a camel passed by this place and some dung fell from it, what harm is there in this? It is not a camel pen. A camel pen is the place where camels gather, are held, and frequent. As for mere dung on the ground, or a camel passing by, or camels walking and leaving dung in the desert, this has no effect, and this is not a camel pen. Yes.
