The reason for performing wudu' from the meat of camels
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Some people say that the reason for the wudu' from the meat of camels is that a man passed wind while the Companions were gathered, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) wanted to avoid embarrassing the one who passed wind, so he said: Is this statement correct?
Answer:
The hadiths we have do not contain this matter; they do not contain this matter. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded wudu' from the meat of camels absolutely, whether one passed wind or not. As for whether this incident actually happened, I do not know if it did or not. This is a separate matter that does not affect the ruling. Yes.

Whoever eats from the meat of camels, let him perform wudu'.
