Clarification of the Invalidity of the Claim that Camels Are Created from the Jinn and of the Jinn’s Intermingling with Them

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: Are all the hadiths that state that camels are created from the jinn weak?

Answer:
I do not know that camels are created from the jinn; I do not know this. However, they say that the jinn intermingle with camels more than with other animals, due to the pride and strength found in camels. Therefore, camel herders have harder hearts than sheep herders. Sheep herders are characterized by tranquility and peace, unlike camel herders, who are dominated by roughness and arrogance, because they acquire these traits from the camels.
