Hadith 330
۞
Hadith.5300 - Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as) ruled regarding the teeth for which blood money (diyyah) is divided that they are twenty-eight in total - sixteen in back of the mouth and twelve in the front.
The compensation for each of the front teeth, if broken and completely lost, is fifty dinars, totaling six hundred dinars.
The compensation for each of the back teeth, if broken and completely lost, is half the amount of the front teeth, which is twenty-five dinars, totaling four hundred dinars.
Altogether, the full compensation for all these teeth is one thousand dinars. Anything less than this has no diyyah, and anything more has no diyyah.
5300 - : "وَ قَضَى أَمِيرُ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ فِي اَلْأَسْنَانِ اَلَّتِي تُقْسَمُ عَلَيْهَا اَلدِّيَةُ أَنَّهَا ثَمَانِي وَ عِشْرُونَ سِنّاً سِتَّةَ عَشَرَ فِي مَوَاخِيرِ اَلْفَمِ وَ اِثْنَا عَشَرَ فِي مَقَادِيمِهِ فَدِيَةُ كُلِّ سِنٍّ مِنَ اَلْمَقَادِيمِ إِذَا كُسِرَ حَتَّى يَذْهَبَ خَمْسُونَ دِينَاراً فَيَكُونُ ذَلِكَ سِتَّمِائَةِ دِينَارٍ وَ دِيَةُ كُلِّ سِنٍّ مِنَ اَلْمَوَاخِيرِ إِذَا كُسِرَ حَتَّى يَذْهَبَ عَلَى اَلنِّصْفِ مِنْ دِيَةِ اَلْمَقَادِيمِ خَمْسَةٌ وَ عِشْرُونَ دِينَاراً فَيَكُونُ ذَلِكَ أَرْبَعَمِائَةِ دِينَارٍ فَذَلِكَ أَلْفُ دِينَارٍ فَمَا نَقَصَ فَلاَ دِيَةَ لَهُ وَ مَا زَادَ فَلاَ دِيَةَ لَهُ".
