授权副手由哈里发的命令任命和罢免。哈里发去世时，授权副手的任期即告终止，除非在临时埃米尔的任期内，他们不得继续履行其职务。此后，他们需要新任哈里发重新任命，方可继续担任此职。由于其权力随着任用他们为副手的哈里发去世而终止，因此他们无需罢免决定。

The delegate assistant is appointed and dismissed by the command of the Khalifah. At the death of the Khalifah, the term of the delegate assistants expire, and they do not continue in their post except during the term of the provisional amir. After this period they require renewal of their appointment to this role by the new Khalifah so as continue in their task. They do not need a decision of dismissal because their authority ceases with the death of the Khalifah that took them as his assistants.
