Yordamchilar — xalifa o‘zi tayinlaydigan vazirlar bo‘lib, ular xalifaga xilofat mas’uliyatlari va yukini tashishda yordam beradilar. Xilofatda, ayniqsa davlat kengayib, hududi ortib borganida, ko‘plab yuklar mavjud bo‘ladi va ular xalifaning o‘zi uchun og‘ir yuk bo‘lardi. Shu sababli unga bu yukni ko‘tarishda va bu mas’uliyatlarni bajarishda yordam beradigan kishilar kerak bo‘ladi. Bunday yordamchilarni tayinlash mubah ishlardan biridir.

The assistants are the Wazirs whom the Khaleefah appoints to assist Him in discharging the burdens and responsibilities of the Khilafah. There are numerous burdens in the Khilafah, especially when the state is growing and expanding, and these would be a heavy burden for the Khaleefah alone. Hence, He needs people to help Him in carrying this burden and discharging these responsibilities. The appointment of such assistants is one of the Mubah matters.

Xalifa o'ziga xalifalik yukini ko'tarishda yordam berishi uchun tayinlaydigan yordamchilar ikki turga bo'linadi: vakolatli yordamchilar va ijroiya yordamchilar.

The assistants whom the Khaleefah appoints to help Him in carrying the burden of the Khilafah are of two types: the delegated assistants and the executive assistants.
