Akwai sharuɗɗa bakwai da ake buƙata don a ƙulla nadin Khalifah, waɗanda su ne: ya zama namiji, Musulmi, ɗan 'yanci, balagagge, mai hankali, adali, kuma daga cikin mutanen da suke da ikon yin aikin.

There are seven conditions for the Khalifah to be contracted, which are: to be male, Muslim, free, adult, sane, just, and from the people who have the capability.

Tun da Khilafah wani bangare ne na mulki (wilaya), ko kuma ma dai shi ne mafi girman wilaya, saboda haka a nan an ambaci nassin mataki na 19, wato wajabcin cika sharuddan guda bakwai da aka ambata.

Since the Khilafah is a part of the ruling (guardianship), or rather it is the greatest guardianship, for that reason the text of the 19th article is mentioned here, in other words, the obligation for the seven mentioned conditions to be fulfilled:

Shaidar da ke nuna cewa Khalifa ya zama namiji ita ce abin da aka ruwaito daga Manzon Allah ﷺ cewa lokacin da ya ji cewa Farisawa sun ba da mulki ga 'yar Kisra, sai ya ce.

The evidence that the Khalifah should be male is what has been narrated from the Messenger (pbuh) that when he heard that the Persians had given the rule to the daughter of Kisra, he said.
