wali（总督）是哈里发在哈里发国中任命为某个维拉耶（省）统治者和埃米尔的人。

The Wali (governor) is the person whom the Khalifah appoints as ruler and Amir over a Wilayah (province) in the Khilafah State. .

伊斯兰国所统治的领土将被划分为若干省，每个省称为“威拉耶”（Wilayah）。威拉耶又划分为若干区，每个区称为“伊玛莱”（Imalah）。被任命管理威拉耶的人称为“瓦利”（Wali），或称埃米尔（amir）；被任命管理伊玛莱的人称为“阿米勒”（amil），或称“哈基姆”（hakim，即统治者）。

The territories which the Islamic State rules over would be divided into provinces and each province would be known as a Wilayah. The Wilayah would in turn be divided into districts and each district would be known as Imalah. The person appointed over the Wilayah would be known as the Wali, or an amir, and the person appointed for the Imalah would be known as the amil or the hakim (ruler). .

‘Imalah（省）被划分为若干行政单位，每个单位称为都会（Qasabah）；而Qasabah又被划分为更小的行政单位，每个单位称为街区（Hayy）。Qasabah和Hayy的负责人都称为管理者（manager），其职责是行政管理。

The ‘Imalah is divided into administrative units, of which each is known as a metropolis (Qasabah), and the Qasabah is divided into smaller administrative units, each known as a quarter (Hayy). The leader of the Qasabah as well as the Hayy is known as a manager; and his work is administrative. .
