Benefits and Issues:
The wisdom in this prohibition is that if, by Allah’s command, the healthy camels contract the disease, then a doubt may arise in the owner’s heart that this illness was caused by grazing the healthy camels together with the sick ones or by letting them drink water with them. Therefore, for the protection of faith, one should avoid any action that may give rise to doubts contrary to the correct creed.
