Questioner: Sayyid Muhammad Mousawi Khoeyniha (Prosecutor General)
[His Holiness Hadrat Ayatullah al-`Uzma Imam Khomeini, Eminent Marja` and Leader of the Islamic Revolution, May your blessings last:
After greeting, respectfully, Your Eminence is notified that in some cases of injuries for which dinar has been cited as blood money is dinar out of question as in the case of camel you observed" Camel is out of question and is comparatively calculated from the blood money for self?"
Your Eminence is kindly requested to give your opinion in order for public prosecutor's offices and courts to know their duty. Wishing Your Holiness health and longevity,
Mousawi Khoeyniha
Prosecutor General

In His Most Exalted Name
Dinar is out of question. Current money in any age or district calculated in equivalent of the prevailing price of dinar is sufficient.
Rouhullah al-Mousawi al-Khomeini
