Khalifa anaruhusiwa kujishughulisha na mambo ya utawala. Mtume ﷺ pia alijishughulisha na mambo ya utawala alipovunja masanamu, alipopanga Jihadi, na alipofuta cheo chake kutoka katika Mkataba wa Hudaybiyah. Ili kurahisisha mambo, anaweza kuwateua wasaidizi watekelezaji (Mu‘awin Tanfeedh) wa kumsaidia katika kusimamia utawala wa Dola. Tofauti na wasaidizi waliokabidhiwa mamlaka, wasaidizi watekelezaji ni watekelezaji tu wa maagizo ya Khalifa. Wao si watawala. Wanaweza pia kupewa jukumu la kushughulikia eneo maalum la kazi au utawala.

The Khaleefah is allowed to engage himself in administrative matters. The Prophet (saw) did engage in administrative matters when he broke idols, organised the Jihad, and erased his title from the Treaty of Hudaybiyah. To facilitate matters, he may appoint executive assistants (Mu‘awin Tanfeedh) to help him manage the administration of the State. Unlike delegated assistants, the executive assistants are only executors of the directives of the Khaleefah. They are not rulers. They may, also, be assigned to one specific area of work or administration.

Kama vile mamlaka ya Mu‘awin Tanfeedh ilivyo na mipaka, ndivyo pia masharti ya kuteuliwa kwake yalivyo. Msaidizi wa utekelezaji hutekeleza amri na kanuni za Khaleefah zinazopaswa kutekelezwa, kisha humrudishia Khaleefah taarifa kuhusu utekelezaji huo.

Just as the authority of the Mu‘awin Tanfeedh is limited so are the conditions for his appointment. The executive assistant carries out the orders and rules of the Khaleefah which are to be implemented, and then brings feedback to the Khaleefah, regarding the execution.
