Is eating camel meat a nullifier of the ablution?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Eating camel meat?

The Shaykh : The stronger position is that eating camel meat is a nullifier of the ablution and necessitates it, based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when he was asked: "Do we perform ablution from eating camel meat?" He said:
Yes نعم
He said: "Do we perform ablution from eating sheep meat?" He said:
If you wish إن شئت
Since he made ablution from sheep meat subject to the person's choice, it is known that ablution from camel meat is not subject to his choice and is obligatory. If it were not obligatory, it would have been subject to his choice. The command regarding this came explicitly, where he (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said:
Perform ablution from eating camel meat توضؤا من لحوم الإبل
The default ruling of a command is obligation. Accordingly, if a person eats camel meat, whether raw or cooked, a little or a lot, whether it is the hibr (kidney fat), liver, stomach, intestines, or any part of it, his ablution is nullified and he must perform ablution anew. However, he is not required to wash his private parts because he did not urinate or defecate.
