哈里发被允许亲自处理行政事务。先知(saw)确实曾亲自处理行政事务:他打碎偶像,组织圣战,并在胡台比亚和约中抹去了自己的头衔。为了便于处理事务,他可以任命执行助手(Mu‘awin Tanfeedh)协助他管理国家行政。与授权助手不同,执行助手仅是哈里发指令的执行者,而非统治者。他们也可以被指派负责某一特定的工作或行政领域。

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.

正如执行助理（Mu‘awin Tanfeedh）的权限是有限的，他的任命条件同样有所限制。执行助理负责执行哈里发的命令和规定，使之得以落实，然后将执行情况向哈里发反馈。

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.
