Commentary

The original blood-wit consists of camels, while elaborate detail preceded above. If the blood-wit is to be given in the form of gold, silver, or coins, then the price of camels possessing attributes described above shall have to be given, which goes on changing from province to province and time. The sum of twelve thousand dirhams stipulated by the Prophet ﷺ in the above-quoted incident was the price of camels prevailing in that period of time. Now the price would be fixed in accordance with the prices prevalent during the present period, whatever it adds up to.
