The wisdom behind the prohibition of praying in the grazing grounds of camels, despite the purity of their urine

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. You mentioned (may Allah preserve you) that camel urine is pure, so what is the wisdom behind the prohibition of praying in the grazing grounds of camels?

The Shaykh:
This is a matter of pure worship. It is true that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited praying in the grazing grounds of camels, and we do not understand the reason. Allah knows best. They said that camels are prone to restlessness and are associated with devils. Therefore, camel herders possess a degree of harshness and roughness that distinguishes them from others. Because of this devilish nature, praying in their grazing grounds is prohibited. This is unlike sheep, which are calm and serene, so a dispensation is granted to pray in their grazing grounds. Some said it is to prevent camels from coming to a person while he is praying and disturbing his prayer, because camels are erratic. If he prays in their grazing grounds and they come to him while he is praying, they might kill him. Therefore, one avoids the places of camels. The correct view is that there is no apparent reason. Allah knows best.

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh.

The Shaykh:
Why does one purify oneself from camel meat, but not from sheep meat? This is exactly the same case, so the matter is one of pure worship.
