The Wisdom of Performing Wudu from Camel Meat

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Abu Aayid says: We eat camel meat and perform wudu, unlike with sheep, goats, and cows, even though they are all from the same family. What is the wisdom behind that?

Answer:
My brother, we follow the hadith. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded performing wudu from camel meat and did not command performing wudu from sheep meat. When he was asked, “Do I perform wudu from sheep meat?” he said, “No.” “Do I perform wudu from camel meat?” he said, “Yes.” As for the wisdom, Allah knows it best. Yes.
