The wokala (singular: wakil; Arabic: وكلاء, romanized: wokala, lit. 'agents') were a networks of agents who were active from Ja'far al-Sadiq's time until the end of the Minor Occultation in 941 CE. The wikalah was responsible for the relations between imams and Shia Islam as well as collecting religious taxes.
