The Hisbah organization which was established on the basis of “commanding
 the good, forbidding the evil” has played an important role in the regulation of social
 life during the Islamic history. There has been a considerable cooperation between
 muhtasib that is a voluntary duty based on other –worldly and the police on the
 other hand which aimed to achieve political and social objectives of the state in the
 early Islamic history. While Muhtasib was considering the achievement of the affair of
 the majority of the society on the basis of divine justice, the police always took the
 affair of political will into account in all the areas. This situation sometimes caused to
 conflict between those two organizations about duty division in the establishment of
 security. While muhtasib had been considering as a reliable authority by the public
 people, the police had been nightmare of those who opposed to the government.
