Muwatta Malik #1697
Blood-Money
Yahya related to me from Malik from
Hisham ibn Urwa that his father made all the teeth the same in the
blood-money and did not prefer any kind over others.
Malik
said, "What is done in our community is that the front teeth, molars,
and eye-teeth have the same blood-money. That is because the Messenger
of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'The tooth
has five camels.' The molar is one of the teeth and he did not prefer
any kind over the others."
