Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Masjid And Madressa Taleem-Ul-Islam
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Masjid And Madressa Taleem-Ul-Islam (the Trust) for the period ended 31 March 2026.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
As the charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ("the Act").
The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Act and that an independent examination is needed.
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
n the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or n the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
n the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

1 Accounting Policies
(a) Basis of preparation
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 (FRS 102) effective 1 January 2019, published by the Charity Commission in England & Wales.
The charity is a public benefit entity.
(b) Funds structure
Unrestricted funds are donations and other incoming resources receivable or generated for the charity without further specified purpose and are available as general funds.
Restricted funds are funds subject to specific trusts, which may be declared by the donor(s) or with their authority (e.g. in a public appeal) or created through legal process, but still within the wider objects of the charity. Restricted funds may be restricted income funds, which are spent at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of some particular aspect(s) of the objects of the charity, or they may be endowment funds, where the assets are required to be invested, or retained for actual use, rather than spent.
(c) Incoming resources
All income from charitable activities and voluntary donations are included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when received. The value of services provided by volunteers has not been included in these accounts.
(d) Resources expended
Liabilities are recognised as resources expended as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to the expenditure. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category.
(e) Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Depreciation is charged on fittings and equipment which is written off on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives:
Asset category Annual rate Fittings and equipment 15% Straight line
The trustees are of the opinion that the depreciation charge for the buildings is not required as the buildings are maintained and the expenditure reflected in the income and expenditure account.
