Hadith 18:18

Abu Bakr narrated to us, he said: Hafs narrated to us, from Ash'ath, from al-Hasan, that Umar and Uthman assessed the blood money (diyah). They left that to the discretion of the giver; if he wishes, he may pay in camels, and if he wishes, he may pay in their monetary value.

حدثنا أبو بكر قال حدثنا حفص عن أشعث عن الحسن أن عمر وعثمان قوما الدية وجعلا ذلك إلى المعطى إن شاء فالإبل وإن شاء فالقيمة
