Eating the Camel’s Stomach, Intestines, and Liver, and the Ablution
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, does eating the camel’s stomach, as well as the intestines and the liver, and drinking the broth, invalidate the ablution?
Answer:
The generality of the hadith that it invalidates the ablution implies that everything eaten from the camel invalidates the ablution; this is the implication of the hadith’s generality. However, some scholars say that it does not invalidate it because these items are not called “meat” in the language. If you appointed someone to buy you meat, and he bought you a liver or a stomach, would the agency be fulfilled? They say no. This is evidence that these things are not called meat in the language when the term is used in its general sense. But the generality of the hadith is that it invalidates the ablution. Yes.
