He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: We understood from your report the disagreement regarding the basis of blood money, and that this is according to two opinions. However, al-Qadi mentioned in *al-Rawayayn wa al-Wajhayn* that the school does not differ in that the basis of blood money is camels, gold, and silver.

This is the school, yes, but the opinion.
