Camel milk as invalidating Wudu'


1089

Q 1: Does drinking camel milk invalidate Wudu' (ablution)?


A: Drinking camel milk does not invalidate Wudu'. In fact, eating (Part No. 4; Page No. 120) camel meat invalidates Wudu' as is mentioned in a Hadith. It was related on the authority of Al-Bara' ibn `Azib (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) was asked about performing Wudu' after eating camel meat. He (peace be upon him) replied, 'Perform Wudu' due to eating it.' (Related by Abu Dawud) Also, Muslim related in his Sahih (authentic) Book of Hadith on the authority of Jabir ibn Samurah (may Allah be pleased with him): A man asked the Prophet (peace be upon him) whether he should perform Wudu' due to eating mutton. He (peace be upon him) said, 'Perform Wudu' if you so desire.' The man (again) asked, 'Should I perform Wudu' due to eating camel meat?' He (peace be upon him) said, 'Yes.' May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
