Wisdom behind camel meat being an invalidation of Wudu'
Q 6:
Why does eating camel meat invalidate Wudu' (ablution)?
A:
Eating camel meat in particular invalidates Wudu' according to the correct opinion maintained by scholars, as proven by Sahih (authentic) Hadiths. The wisdom is Ta`abbudy (a devotional obedience; the reason of its legislation lies beyond rational analysis), and we are not required to know the wisdom behind it. We should believe in the rulings of Shari`ah (Islamic law) and apply them, even if we do not understand the wisdom behind them, while believing that Allah (Glorified be He) is the All-Wise, the All-Knowing. However, the scholars mentioned that part of the wisdom behind it is that camels have some sort of evil influence, violence, envy, and malice against those who harm them. If a person eats their meat, they acquire some of their traits, so Wudu' is prescribed in order to nullify this effect.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
