He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the wisdom in mentioning camels before the construction of the sky in His saying:
Then do they not look at the camels - how they are created?أَفَلَا يَنظُرُونَ إِلَى الْإِبِلِ كَيْفَ خُلِقَتْ
[Al-Ghashiyah 88:17]

Because it is the closest thing to people. The closest of the signs to people is the camels in their hands, and the creation of the camel is a sign among the signs of Allah if you reflect upon it. Yes.
