6.4.3 Wali na ‘Aamel wa Mikoa
6.4.3 The Wali and the ‘Aamel of the Provinces
Migawanyo ya wilayaat au Mikoa huitwa ‘amalat au wilaya. Usimamizi na uwajibikaji wa ‘amalat hizi hukabidhiwa ‘aamel au mtawala msaidizi.
Subdivisions of the wilayaat or Provinces are called ‘amalat or districts. Supervision and responsibility for these ‘amalat is assigned to an ‘aamel or sub-governor.
Baada ya kujadili hapo awali nafasi ya Khaleefah, hapa tutatafakari juu ya jukumu la wali na ‘aamel ambao hutekeleza Uislamu kwa wakazi wao. Mamlaka haya ya jumla ya wali yanatulazimu kumchukulia kama mtawala. Kwa hiyo, ana majukumu yanayofanana na yale aliyopewa Khaleefah kwa ajili ya uendeshaji mzuri wa Dola. Hata hivyo, maeneo ambayo yangeweza kumfanya awe huru, kama vile fedha za Dola, jeshi, na mahakama, pamoja na kupitisha sheria tofauti na zile zilizopitishwa na Khaleefah, hayako chini ya udhibiti wake, kwa kuwa yanaweza kuhatarisha umoja wa Dola.
Having previously discussed the position of Khaleefah, we will contemplate here on the role of wali and ‘aamel who implement Islam upon their residents. This general jurisdiction of the wali obliges us to consider him as a ruler. He, therefore, has similar responsibilities to those which are assigned to the Khaleefah for the efficient operation of the State. However areas that might make him autonomous, such as finances of the State, the army, and the judiciary, as well as adopting laws other than those adopted by the Khaleefah, are not within his control since they might pose a threat to the unity of the State.
