AL BADR ISLAMIC TRUST

Trustees' Annual Report for the year ended 31 December 2022

The main activities undertaken in relation to those purposes during the year.

The Lancaster centre- Jamea al Kauthar. Established in 1996, we are dedicated to welcoming students into an academic atmosphere that is spiritually enriching and physically nurturing. We cater for girls from ages 11 and above, providing an Islamic education as well as high school and sixth form subjects.

The school places great emphasis on providing an excellent Islamic environment that is conducive to acquiring a good education whilst catering for a culturally and ethnically diverse student population. Students are challenged to pursue excellence in a family-like environment, and their welfare and progression is our highest priority. An extensive pastoral care system ensures that our girls are treated as important individuals. We are constantly working hard to improve our facilities to deliver a good education and a memorable student experience.

Jamea Al Kauthar is located in the heart of Lancaster in the UK, and consists of a Victorian four storey, grade II listed building (formerly The Royal Albert). The main building forms the central accommodation at the boarding school with separate wings designated for separate boarding houses. The madrasah and school are situated in two separate buildings, and all three buildings are surrounded by 20.5 acres of beautiful natural grounds giving a serene setting to relax and enhance the mind and body.

The Preston Centre- Abrar Academy opened in 2009 is an Independent Secondary College for boys from the age of 11. We offer a balanced curriculum, encompassing the full time Alimiyyah and Hifz course combined with the traditional English curriculum. In 2015, Darul Uloom Preston was established to provide students from outside Preston an opportunity to come and study in an academic atmosphere that is spiritually enriching and physically nurturing.

The Charity also runs a spiritual centre and a Masjid in Blackburn known as Khankah from Robinson Street, Blackburn. The charity runs a Masjid in Accrington which is being re-developed after the complete demolition of its building structure.

The main activities undertaken during the year to further the charity's purpose for the public benefit.

Jamea at Lancaster offers the following subjects at KS3: English, Maths, Science, ICT, Art, PSHE & Citizenship, Humanities, PE, and Urdu. At GCSE Level, students are entered for English Language, English Literature, Maths, Combined Science, Religious Studies, Urdu, ICT and History.

Jamea offers English, Urdu and Maths at AS Level and English, Urdu and RS at A2. Jamea also offers many level 3 courses, such as BTEC ICT, BTEC Science and BTEC Health & Social Care.

In September 2015, Abrar School in Preston opened its boarding facilities known as Darul ul Uloom Preston and has now many boarding students. All boarding students benefit from a spiritually uplifting enviroment that helps them develop spiritually and and as exemplary citizens who greatly contribute to society.

We have recently expanded our provision for the Muslim community in the north west, with the purchase of additional facilities in Preston (to add to our expanding Preston centre), and with the establishment of a places of worship in both Accrington and Blackburn. Many of our newly established sites aim to provide Islamic education for disadvantaged children from deprived backgrounds.

AL BADR ISLAMIC TRUST

Trustees' Annual Report for the year ended 31 December 2022

The short term and longer term aims and objectives.

At our schools, we aspire to cultivate morality and inspire our girls and boys to graduate as able, confident British Muslim citizens and outstanding role models for their communities. To this end, the graduates of our college not only perform well in the school, they also transfer high standards of moral and ethical values, principles and standards to their chosen paths within their own communities. The long term objective is to instil religious Islamic education combined with secular education to enrich the fabric of tomorrow's society.

The main achievements and performance of the charity during the year.

This reporting year, Jamea al Kauthar had the joy of celebrating the graduation ceremony of 42 Aalima and 5 Sanatayn students, whilst in Darul Uloom Preston 5 Aalim students graduated and 9 Hifz students completed their Quran memorisation.

The Trustees are happy to report yet again that the Jamea al Kauthar GCSE 2022 results were excellent.

The results in GCSE English, GCSE History and ICT were well above average, and the strong pass percentage in English and Maths was in line with the national average.

Abrar Academy in Preston, which serves as a residential and non-residential boys' school, is continuing to provide secondary education, as well as A level provision for post 16 boys. In 2022, many of the students achieved excellent results in their GCSEs, which they completed alongside their Islamic curriculum

Fundraising activities during the year.

The charity relies on aid from the individual donors, whose support is valued. The charity continued its normal fundraising activities to update and improve the educational establishments it provides for the community.

In order to comply with the disclosures required by Section 62A of the Charities Act 2011 as introduced by the Charities (Protection and Social Investment) Act 2016, the Trustees state that the Trust does not use professional fundraisers.

The difference the charity's performance during the year has made to the beneficiaries of the charity.

The Charity runs Islamic courses along with GCSE and A Level courses, benefitting more than 250 boarding students at the main Lancaster centre. This continues to draw much interest within the community, with many applicants applying from all over the country.

The degree to which the achievements and performance during the year have benefited wider society.

Al Badr Islamic Trust recognises the importance of contributing to the community and community cohesion. Many of the students that graduate from our schools, go on to work at schools and charities in their local area. Our students also regularly raise money for local charities and worldwide causes. The schools work on many initiatives that contribute to society, such as visits to the local old people's home and donating to local food and clothing banks.

Financial review of the position at the reporting date, 31 December 2022 .

The trustees consider the financial performance by the charity during the year to have been satisfactory. The pricipal funding of the charity is from parents of students given by way of contributions fees for their children. Park Campus Moor Park Avenue, Preston PR1 6AS: This property was acquired and is now being rented by the previous owner and the rental income is materially contributing to a fixed yearly income that gives the Trust significant source of secured cash flow benefits.

Policies on reserves.

The level of cash reserves at any given time is based on the requirement for a full months expenditure The level of cash liquid reserves changes drastically in the month of January, April and September when the fees instalment is received from the students. At the end of December the funds will always be at a low level. The fixed asset pool is fully utilised for charitable purposes. The Trust has a pool of assets under investment properties that are used to generate cash by way of rental income for maintaining a regular source of liquid funds. There are no designated funds set aside.

AL BADR ISLAMIC TRUST

Trustees' Annual Report for the year ended 31 December 2022

Going Concern

The trustees have given careful consideration to going concern. The net current asset liabilities is significantly in deficit, the trustees consider that the Karz Hassana (Interest free loans given for charitable purposes) are not demanded by the lenders for long periods of time, although legally they are payable on demand. Historically, these loans have remained fixed and many times converted into donations.

Public Benefit

When planning the charity activities, the board of Trustees have taken into consideration the Commissions guidance and the specific guidance on charities for the advancement of religion.

It is charity policy, that when it is necessary to waive fees for services and goods provided to help the students from poor and disadvantaged families the trust will implement this policy and regard it as provision of services for public benefit.

Independent auditor’s report to the Trustees of Al Badr Islamic Trust

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Al Badr Islamic Trust (the 'charity') for the year ended 31 December 2022 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, Balance Sheet, The Cash Flow Statement, and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Trustees use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Trust's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other Information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, including the trustees’ report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements, or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the trustees' report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities Act 2011 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

7

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the trustees' responsibilities statement set out on page 6, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditor under Section 144 Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we:

-performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships;

-assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates set out in Note 1 were indicative of potential bias;

-investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions.

In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to:

-agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation;

-reading the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance;

-enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims.

A further description of our responsibilities from the Financial Reporting Council’s website is set out below; As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs (UK), the auditor exercises professional judgment and maintains professional scepticism throughout the audit.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

-we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the company;

-we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management and inspecting legal correspondence; and

-identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit.

We assessed the susceptibility of the company’s financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by:

-making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud;

-considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations.

The auditor also:

-Identifies and assesses the risks of material misstatement of the entity’s (or where relevant, the consolidated) financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, designs and performs audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtains audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for the auditor’s opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. The auditor includes an explanation in the auditor’s report of the extent to which the audit was capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud.

AL BADR ISLAMIC TRUST

Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 December 2022

1 Accounting policies

Policies relating to the production of the accounts.

Basis of preparation and accounting convention

The accounts have been prepared on the accruals basis, under the historical cost convention, and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard 102, and Charities Sorp FRS102 (Effective 1 January 2019) published by Charities Commission in England and Wales and in accordance with all applicable law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Standards and Practice

The charity is a public benefit entity.

In setting our objectives and planning our activities the trustees have given careful consideration to the Charity Commissions's general guidance on public benefit

Recognition of Income, liabilities and expenditure

Incoming resources are accounted for on a receivable basis except for donations which are accounted for only when received. The value of services provided by volunteers has not been included.

Resouces expended are recognised in the period in which they are incurred, Resources expended include the attributable VAT. It comprises those resources expended by the charity in the delivery of its education services for the benefit of its beneficiaries, mainly children. A liability, and the related expenditure, is recognised when a legal or constructive obligation exists as a result of a past event, and when it is more likely than not that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and when the amount of the obligation can be measured or reliably estimated.

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are measured at their original cost value, or subsequent revaluation, or if donated, as described above. Cost value includes all costs expended in bringing the asset into its intended working condition. Assets under £500 are not capitalised when acquired and if the net book value falls below £500 the amount is written off. All assets that have been fully depreciated are also removed from the fixed assets valuation

Depreciation has been provided at the following rates in order to write off the assets to their anticipated residual value over their estimated useful lives.

Freehold land nil Buildings 2 % straight line Plant and machinery, fixtures and vehicles 25 % reducing balance

A regular annual review of the likelihood of asset impairment is undertaken.

Debtors

Debtors are measured at their recoverable amounts at the balance sheet date.

Creditors and provisions

Short term creditors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price). Loans and other financial liabilities are initially recognised at transaction price.Provisions (ie liabilities of uncertain timing or amount) are recognised when there is an obligation at the reporting date as a result of a past event, it is probable that economic benefit will be transferred to settle the obligation and the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably.

Investments

Investments held as fixed and current assets are valued at the balance sheet date by the Trustees.

Fund Accounting

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the objectives of the charity. There are no designated funds set up by the Trustees

Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure imposed by the donor or through the terms of an appeal or as implied by law. The Trust has restricted fixed assets funds

Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 December 2022

2 Liability to taxation

The Trustees consider that the charity satisfies the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the Charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by chapter 3 part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively on the specific charitable objects of the charity and for no other purpose. Value Added Tax is not recoverable by the charity, and is therefore included in the relevant costs in the Statement of Financial Activities.

3 Winding up or dissolution of the charity

If upon winding up or dissolution of the charity there remain any assets, after the satisfaction of all debts and liabilities, the assets represented by the accumulated fund shall be transferred to some other charitable body or bodies having similar objects to the charity.

4 Significance of financial instruments to the charity's position

The loans under creditors due within one year are loans known as Karze Hassana and loaned by individuals on the basis that they are repayable on demand and interest free.
