Is there evidence that eating camel meat invalidates the wudu'?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : ...

The Shaykh : Yes, have you not heard the hadith of Jabir ibn Samurah and al-Bara' ibn 'Azib? Imam Ahmad said: "There are two authentic hadiths from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): the hadith of al-Bara' and the hadith of Jabir ibn Samurah". The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked: "Do we perform wudu' from eating camel meat?" He said:
Yes نعم
He said: "Do we perform wudu' from eating sheep meat?" He said:
If you wish إن شئت
The hadith is in Muslim. What does it indicate? It indicates that wudu' is obligatory, because when he made eating sheep meat subject to his choice, it indicated that wudu' from camel meat is not subject to choice but is obligatory. Likewise, other hadiths indicate that the Messenger commanded, saying:
Perform wudu' from camel meat توضؤوا من لحوم الإبل
