Combining: The Ablution from Camel Meat, and Not Performing Ablution from What Has Touched Fire

Question:
The first message in this episode is from a listener who says: The listener (M. H.) from Sudan asks and says: Regarding Jabir ibn Samurah (may Allah be pleased with him) : that a man asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Do I have to perform ablution from sheep meat?" He said: He said: "Do I have to perform ablution from camel meat?" He said: And in the other hadith: "That the final ruling from him (peace and blessings be upon him) was not performing ablution from what has touched fire." What is the wisdom in these two hadiths, especially regarding ablution from camel meat? And how do we combine these two hadiths? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon the Messenger of Allah, and upon his family and his Companions, and upon those who follow his guidance. As for what follows:
The hadith of Jabir ibn Samurah mentioned is authentic, narrated by Muslim in the Sahih: that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) , when asked about camel meat, ordered ablution from it, and as for sheep, he said: And it is established in the hadith of al-Bara' ibn 'Azib (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said so he ordered ablution from it.
This indicates that camel meat invalidates the ablution, and that it is obligatory for any man or woman who eats camel meat to perform ablution. As for not performing ablution from what has touched fire, this is a general ruling from which camel meat is excluded. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered ablution from what has touched fire, then he left that practice. So the majority of the scholars of knowledge said: it is abrogated. And others said: he only left it to clarify that it is not obligatory, otherwise it is recommended to perform ablution from sheep meat and the like.
So the conclusion is: that not performing ablution from what has touched fire is a general matter, encompassing camels, cows, sheep, and others. Then the hadiths regarding camel meat came to exclude it, so it indicated that what he (peace and blessings be upon him) intended was only cows, sheep, birds, and the like, while camels remain [obligatory]. For this reason, he combined them: when asked about camel meat, he said: And about sheep meat, he said: So this indicates that what came [regarding] the abrogation... of ablution from what has touched fire. Yes.
