Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: One of the camel owners says that he has camels and feeds them barley, straw, and other things. These camels sometimes eat some of their own dung after it has dried because of the barley in it. Is this considered *jalalah*? And what is the ruling regarding their meat and milk? So that people may eat them. *Jalalah* is eating from the dung of people.

Answer:
It is impure. As for the fact that it eats from its own dung, its own dung is pure. The dung of camels is pure. Yes.
