The cause of wudu' from camel meat as reported among the common people

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, what is the truth of what some people report, namely that the reason for the prohibition of eating camel meat is that the Companions were sitting around the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), when one of them felt the urge to relieve himself and stood up to do so, so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered those sitting to refrain from eating camel meat, and from that we derived the prohibition of eating camel meat.

Answer:
I do not know this; I am not aware of it, I do not know. It is perhaps from the good intentions of the common people. If any of you finds a hadith on this, please publish it or point us to its location. We only hear this among the common people; it needs to be verified.
