Diwan al-zimam (English spelling)

...For example, in the 9th century, as private estates (dai'as) developed throughout the country, the tax authorities branched off into separate private estate offices. When the capital was moved back from Samarra to Baghdad in 892, these tax authorities were unified as Diwan al-Dar. The country's tax administrative districts were then divided into three, with Diwan al-Sawād for Iraq, Diwan al-Masriq for the East, Diwan al-Maghrib for Syria and Egypt, and a separate Office of the Caliph's Private Estates to enable more detailed tax administration. Diwan ad-Dar also served as the secretariat of the vizier (wajir) and coordinated between the various government offices. A distinctive feature of the Abbasid diwan system was the creation of a diwan al-zimām for each diwan during the reign of the third caliph, Mahdi. This meant an auditing office to oversee the work of the diwan and inspect the work of government officials. Moreover, a Supreme Audit Office was established to oversee the various auditing offices, and its chief was appointed directly by the caliph.
