Is it correct to say that the camel is a devil, and that whoever slaughters it has slaughtered a devil?

The questioner : The second question: A brother heard his brother in Allah saying that the camel is a devil, and that whoever slaughters it has slaughtered a devil. He cited the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) . His brother replied to him, saying, "This is not appropriate. The correct statement is that the origin of camels is from the devils, and the origin of a thing is not the thing itself.

The correct statement is that the camel is an animal accompanied by devils. The evidence for this is that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, . So which group is more deserving of the truth: the first or the second?"

The Shaykh : The first is wrong in the most severe way, and the second is correct in every way.

The questioner : May Allah reward you with good.
