وَحَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى عَنْ مَالِكٍ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّهُ
كَانَ يُسَوِّي بَيْنَ الأَسْنَانِ فِي الْعَقْلِ وَلاَ يُفَضِّلُ بَعْضَهَا عَلَى بَعْضٍ

Yahya related to me from Malik from Hisham ibn Urwa that his father made all the teeth the same in the blood-money and did not prefer any kind over others. Malik said, "What is done in our community is that the front teeth, molars, and eye-teeth have the same blood-money. That is because the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'The tooth has five camels.' The molar is one of the teeth and he did not prefer any kind over the others."
Notes
قَالَ مَالِكٌ وَالأَمْرُ عِنْدَنَا أَنَّ مُقَدَّمَ الْفَمِ وَالأَضْرَاسِ وَالأَنْيَابِ عَقْلُهَا سَوَاءٌ وَذَلِكَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ فِي السِّنِّ خَمْسٌ مِنَ الإِبِلِ وَالضِّرْسُ سِنٌّ مِنَ الأَسْنَانِ لاَ يَفْضُلُ بَعْضُهَا عَلَى بَعْضٍ
machine translationMālik said: "The established position with us is that the blood-money (ʿaql) for the front of the mouth, the molars and the canine teeth is the same. That is because the Messenger of God ﷺ said regarding a tooth: five camels. And the molar is one of the teeth; some of them are not given precedence over others."
