Qozilar va muhtasibni umumiy vakolatda tayinlash, ya'ni mamlakat bo'ylab barcha masalalarda hukm chiqarish uchun tayinlash joiz. Shuningdek, uni muayyan vakolatda tayinlash ham joiz bo'lib, bu cheklov geografik jihatdan yoki muayyan turdagi sud ishlari bo'yicha bo'lishi mumkin. Bu Rasululloh ﷺ ning amallariga muvofiqdir: u ‘Ali ibn Abi Tolibni Yaman ustiga qozi qilib tayinladi, Mu‘oz ibn Jabalni esa Yamanning bir hududi ustiga qozi qilib tayinladi; shuningdek, ‘Amr ibn al-‘Osni bir aniq masala bo'yicha qozi qilib tayinladi. Qozi muhtasib va qozi ‘Aam haqida gap ketganda, shu o'rinli.

It is permitted to appoint the judges and the muhtasib in a general capacity, to judge on all matters all over the country. It is also permitted to appoint him in a specific capacity, where the specification could either be geographic or according to a certain type of judiciary. This would be in accordance with the actions of the Messenger of Allah (saw), for he appointed ‘Ali ibn Abi Talib as judge over Yemen, and Mu‘adh ibn Jabal as judge over an area of Yemen; he also appointed ‘Amr ibn al-A’as as judge in one specific matter. This is as far as the qadi muhtasib and the qadi ‘Aam are concerned.

Madhaalim qozisi haqida aytadigan bo'lsak, uni butun mamlakat uchun tayinlash yoki ma'lum bir hudud bilan cheklash joiz. Chunki Rasululloh ﷺ Rashid ibn Abdulloh ni tayinlagan vaqtida uni hokimlik qilgan imoratda qozilik va madhaalim ishlari bo'yicha amir qilib tayinlagan. Madhaalim qozisini ma'lum masalalar bilan cheklash esa harom, chunki Rasululloh ﷺ bunday qilmagan. Bundan tashqari, uning vazifasi odamlarning shikoyatlarini ko'rib chiqish va ularning sabablarini bartaraf etishdir, shuning uchun ixtisoslashtirish amalga oshmaydi, chunki shikoyatlarni bo'lib-bo'lib ko'rib bo'lmaydi. Shuningdek, u madhaalimni ko'rib chiquvchi qozi bo'lishi bilan birga, madhaalim sabablarini bartaraf etuvchi hokim hamdir, hokimlik esa bo'linmaydi. Demak, hokim hokimlikka ixtisoslashmaydi, ya'ni uni ma'lum masalalar ustidan hukm qilish bilan cheklab, boshqa masalalar ustidan hukm qilishdan man etib bo'lmaydi; uni faqat hudud bilan cheklash mumkin.

As for the judge of madhaalim, it is permitted to appoint him for the whole country or to confine him to a specific area, for the Messenger of Allah (saw) appointed Rashid ibn Abdillah as Amir of the judiciary and the madhaalim over the imara where he was appointed. As for the confining of the judge of madhaalim to certain matters, this is forbidden, for the Messenger of Allah (saw) did not do so, and because his duty would be to look into the complaints of the people and remove their causes, thus specialisation would not be feasible, for the complaints cannot be partitioned. Also, in addition to him being a judge looking into the madhaalim, he is also a ruler in removing the causes of the madhaalim, and the rule cannot be partitioned. Thus the ruler does not specialise in the rule, i.e. he cannot be confined to ruling over certain matters and be restricted from ruling over other matters, he can only be confined to an area.

Hokimning vakolatlari va barcha ishlarni ko'rib chiqish huquqiga ega bo'lgan hokim tayinlanganda, uning hukmronlik vazifalarini cheklash va turkumlarga ajratish man etiladi. Xuddi shu gap mazolim qozisi uchun ham amal qiladi: uning tayinlanishi qazo (sud ishlari) jihatidan umumiy bo'ladi. Shunday bo'lsa-da, uni xuddi valiyni maxsus viloyatga biriktirgandek, ma'lum bir hudud bilan cheklash mumkin. Bu hukmronlikning bo'linishi emas, balki viloyatning aniqlashtirilishidir. Viloyat qayerda va qanday turda bo'lishidan qat'i nazar, o'sha viloyatning hukmronligini bo'lish mumkin emas. Mazolim qozisi ham xuddi shunday mazolim viloyatiga tayinlanadi, bu viloyat esa umumiy bo'lgani uchun uning viloyat hududini bo'lish noto'g'ri bo'ladi. Bu dalil shuni ko'rsatadiki, mazolim sudi jihatidan uni faqat umumiy tayinlov bilan tayinlash kerak.

When a ruler is appointed and he acquires the mandatory powers and the authority to look into all matters, it is forbidden to restrict and categorise his duties of rule. The same applies to the judge of madhaalim - his appointment would be general as far as the judiciary is concerned. He can, however, be confined to a specific area just as for the confinement of the wali to a special wilayah. This would not be a partition of his rule but a specification of the wilayah, and no matter where and what type of wilayah it is, the rule of that wilayah cannot be partitioned. The judge of madhaalim would be appointed similarly over the wilayah of madhaalim, and this wilayah is general, therefore it would be wrong to partition the domain of his wilayah. This serves as evidence that he should not be appointed except with a general appointment as far as the judiciary of madhaalim is concerned.
