REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2023

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Significant activities

As-Suffa are dedicated to making a positive impact locally and globally through Islamic education, community projects, and relief efforts. We firmly believe that true knowledge and understanding of Islam should be accompanied by compassion, service, and support for those in need. Our organisation strives to provide comprehensive Islamic education, empowering individuals to deepen their understanding of the faith and apply its teachings in their lives. In addition, we actively engage in community projects, working closely with local communities to address social issues, promote unity, and create a positive change. Furthermore, our commitment extends beyond borders, as we initiate and participate in relief projects around the world, assisting vulnerable communities during times of crisis and providing them with essential aid and support. Through our holistic approach, we aim to foster spiritual growth, build strong communities, and make a meaningful difference in the lives of individuals, both near and far.

Our mission is to serve the community by offering comprehensive Islamic educational courses that cater to individuals seeking a deeper understanding of Islam. We believe in the importance of providing accessible and reliable resources to promote a balanced and authentic understanding of the Islamic faith. Our website and facilities serves as platforms where learners of all backgrounds can access a wide range of courses, including Alimiyyah, Heirs of the Scholars, Maktab Qur'anic studies, Islamic history, theology, jurisprudence, and spirituality. Through expert instruction and engaging learning materials, we aim to empower individuals to explore and connect with the rich teachings of Islam. We are committed to fostering an inclusive and supportive environment where learners can interact, ask questions, and engage in meaningful discussions. By providing Islamic educational courses to the community, we aspire to promote knowledge, enhance spiritual growth, and contribute to the overall well-being of individuals and the society at large.

The following are just some of the courses we have hosted over the last year:

Alimiyyah course

The Alimiyyah Course is a full-time course for brothers and sisters who wish to understand the Quran and Hadith in their original forms. This course, therefore puts the study of the Arabic language at its core by laying firm foundations of Arabic grammar, morphology and spoken Arabic in the early years of the course, with progressive development into higher levels of the language until students are competent at reading Arabic texts themselves.

The study of fiqh (jurisprudence) and usools (laws), along with the essential tafaasir (exegesis) of the Quran also form core components of the course, providing a wholesome understanding of the religion.

Hifz course

The hifdh course is a full-time course for those who wish to make a commitment to memorising the glorious Quran. This provides a structured and regular opportunity to sit down and memorise the Quran, under the supervision of a senior tajweed teacher and hafiz.

Heirs of the Scholars

Heirs of the Scholars course is a part-time study programme for those brothers and sisters who wish to make a commitment to studying sacred knowledge, but need to balance this alongside other commitments, such as family, work or education.

The course runs in the evenings between Monday to Friday and has produced a number of graduates, as well as serving as a stepping stone on to the full-time Alimiyyah Course.

Intro to Ifta course

The Intro to Ifta course is an advanced level course for graduates from an Alimiyyah course. It runs Wednesday evening and is designed to equip students with advanced knowledge of fiqh and research skills. The course is a way for students to continue their studies after graduation and develop a better understanding on how to apply their theoretical studies to the real world.

Diploma Course

The 2-year Diploma in Islamic studies is a short-term part-time course covering a breadth of Islamic disciplines in the English language.

AS SUFFA TRUST

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2023

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

It is designed to equip the student with a broad understanding of the Islamic sciences and is taught in the English language to aid comprehension for those who cannot commit to study of the Arabic language.

The Tajweed Course

Tajweed is the science of learning how to recite the noble Quran in the correct manner. This begins with perfecting the pronunciation of the Arabic letters before moving on to the rules of recitation.

Maktab

Maktab is the bedrock of a Muslim community and instils all the tools and attributes required for a prosperous future. The As-Suffa maktab is for children between the ages of 5-12 to learn how to read the Quran.

Weekend Courses

The weekend courses offer an intensive study option for those who cannot commit the time and/or would like to increase their knowledge on a particular topic.

Online & Other Courses

We have offered an array of courses online. This attracts a new wider audience. These include the weekend courses as well as the Alimiyyah online and Reverts steppingstones course, Sister Circle Monthly, Power of Duaa, No Doubts Course, Children's Corner, Grand Iftar Badr 313 Classical Reading respectively.

At As-Suffa, community welfare is at the core of our initiatives. We are committed to serving and uplifting our local community through a variety of impactful projects. From organizing soup kitchens and a food bank for the homeless to support vulnerable individuals and families, to conducting educational programs that empower youth and adults with valuable skills, we strive to address the pressing needs of our community. Our projects also focus on promoting health and well-being by organising wellness campaigns, and supporting mental health initiatives including counselling. Additionally, we actively collaborate with local organizations and institutions to develop sustainable community development projects that foster economic growth, enhance infrastructure, and improve the overall quality of life. Through our unwavering dedication to community welfare, we aim to create a positive and lasting impact that uplifts individuals, strengthens bonds, and fosters a sense of belonging for everyone in our community.

Some of the projects we offer are as follows:

The main objective of the project is to provide emergency weeks worth of groceries to service users who have accommodation but are going through crisis.

We understand the importance of extending compassion and assistance to vulnerable communities facing crises and disasters. Our relief projects focus on delivering immediate assistance, including emergency food, clean water, medical supplies, and shelter, to those affected by natural disasters, conflicts, and humanitarian emergencies. We work closely with local partners and relief organisations on the ground to ensure that aid reaches those who need it most efficiently and effectively. Moreover, we are dedicated to long-term sustainable development by implementing projects that empower communities, such as providing access to education, vocational training, and livelihood opportunities. Our commitment to global relief projects is driven by the belief that every individual deserves dignity, safety, and the opportunity to rebuild their lives.

Our Ashaab As-Suffa programme was initiated in 2021 to revitalise communities and transform them for generations to come. Last year, in 2023, with your help we were able to offer 309 sponsorships in Pakistan and The Gambia. Our aim is to provide world class education to deprived communities of these regions. With that in mind, we are hoping this will lead to greater change, not just by providing world class education, but also food, training and employment opportunities for family members. Although it is early days, we are already observing the benefits of your sponsorships.

In Pakistan, the Ashaab As-Suffa programme is administered through the As-Suffa School of Excellence in the Islamabad and Jhelum campuses. All the children are orphans and street children. They reside in squatty conditions not too far from the schools. They have little or no prospects and prior to the schools opening, many children would end up begging on the streets. The schools have made it possible for children and family members not to worry about education and food. More so, many parents and guardians are also benefiting from the free vocational training. The schools are also the first of its kind to offer full time MMA and cricket coaching. Highlights include children winning regional tournaments and being selected for the national team trials. Opportunities like this would never have been a reality for street children in slum areas. This is all possible thanks to Allah, the Almighty, and your kind donations & support.

These are the six key areas assistance and support we place emphasis on:

Education: We will support orphans and street children with free world-class school education.

Food: Whilst the child attends school we will support the family members and child with meals in and out of school. The biggest reason from the children as to why they aren't in education is because they need to work to eat and survive and provide for their family members.

Income: During school hours we will proactively work with any family members and members of the local community by providing free training and employment opportunities. This could be in the form of sewing classes or providing rickshaws to allow family members to better their living conditions.

Stable housing: In sha Allah with food and education taken care of and income from employment activities we should see the temporary houses turned into permanent structures.

Generational change: The children who graduate from our schools will be able to access higher paying job roles and eventually begin their own businesses if they can demonstrate the aptitude to do so. We hope to grant the means and assistance to allow people of these communities to transform and flourish.

The future: Success will be measured by hopefully sustaining the aid we provide to the community where eventually poverty isn't a barrier to access good quality education and employment. Qurbani

Last year we were able to provide as many as 272 high quality full-animal meat sources and a form of much needed protein to various part of the world. These countries included Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bangladesh (Rohingya Camps), Gaza, Pakistan, Sierra Leonne, Zambia, Yemen, Syria (refugees in Lebanon) and The Gambia.

Sadaqah Jariyah Wells

Alhamdulillah, with your support, last year, we were able to build 37 water wells in Pakistan, 8 in Bangladesh, 5 in The Gambia, 1 in Zambia. With climate change a more dangerous proposition each year, severe droughts have contributed to more of the world's population living without safe drinkable water

Our Educational courses and events resumed in person after the pandemic and Alhamdulillah the response was amazing. Many people attended and benefitted from the wide array of courses and events. Below is a list of activities and the number of people enrolled:

We are proud to highlight some of our notable achievements within the community. Over the years, our organisation has successfully implemented a range of impactful initiatives that have positively impacted the lives of many. Our community welfare projects have provided support to vulnerable individuals and families, addressing pressing needs such as food security, mental health, and access to legal advice. We have also been actively involved in various collaborative efforts to promote social cohesion, inclusivity, and unity within our community.

Some of the achievements include:

Testimonial:

One user had initially accessed the service seeking support for their depression. It was later understood that them and their sibling had been sexually abused over 30 years ago. This was the first time the user had shared this with anyone. More recently, the user had been experiencing difficulties with their marriage and overall motivation. Since beginning therapy, they have been able to better understand their partner and their marital relationship. They have been able to improve their expectation of relationships with their sibling and have now started a new job, alhamdulillah. These were major steps from a therapeutic perspective as this user had never worked previously. Overall, the user has since been able to manage their depression, with the assistance of GP's medication, as well as healthier coping strategies such as, psychoeducation, regular exercise and talking therapy.

These achievements would not have been possible without the support and dedication of our volunteers, donors, and community partners. As we continue our journey, we remain committed to making a lasting and positive impact on the lives of individuals in our community.

Fundraising activities

The Charity carries out many fundraising activities during the year, including at particular times ie Ramandan. Fundraising is carried out at the Mosque itself and does not involve any professional fundraisers.

The Charity ensures that vulnerable people do not feel pressured into giving donations and the Charity has not received any complaints in this area.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF AS SUFFA TRUST

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of As Suffa Trust (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 30 September 2023 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Cash Flow Statement and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (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 Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company 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 charitable company'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 trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon.

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.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, 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 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. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

Page 12

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF AS SUFFA TRUST

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Report of the Trustees.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) 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 charitable company'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 charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

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 a Report of the Independent Auditors 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.

The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

Based on our understanding of the Charity and industry, we identified that the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations related to employment laws and taxes, and we considered the extent to which non-compliance might have a material effect on the financial statements. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements such as the Companies Act 2006 and FRS 102. We evaluated management's incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements (including the risk of override of controls), and determined that the principal risks were related to posting inappropriate journal entries to achieve desired financial results and the manipulation of exceptional items and management bias in accounting estimates. Audit procedures performed by the engagement team included, but were not limited to: - enquiries with management, and the Company's legal counsel (internal and, where relevant, external), including consideration of known or suspected instances of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations and examining supporting calculations where a provision has been made in respect of these; reading key correspondence with regulatory authorities in relation to compliance with certain employment laws and indirect tax matters; - understanding and evaluating the design and implementation of management's controls designed to prevent and detect irregularities; - challenging assumptions and judgements made by management in their significant accounting estimates, in particular, in relation to restricted funds; - identifying and testing journal entries, in particular any journal entries posted with unusual account combinations and postings by unusual users; There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. Also, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2023

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

The Charity relies upon regular donations to be able to meet it's obligations to finance projects. Projects are only actioned when finance has been obtained. Thus expenditure is not incurred before the corresponding income is received. The Charity has unrestricted reserves of £2,394,671, at the year end, and bank balances of £2,610,155. Total overheads amount to approximately £600,000 per annum so the Charity would be able to meet these payments for the next 12 months even without any funding from donations.

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Donations are the main source of income and they are recognised as income once the monies are received in the bank account.

Most income is received from fundraising for specific projects and donations are shown in the accounts as unrestricted funds.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Raising funds

The Charity raises funds internally from mosque worshippers, mostly for specific projects. It does not use external fundraisers.

Governance costs

Governance costs relate to audit fees and are recorded on an accrual basis.

Allocation and apportionment of costs

Most of the charity's expenditure relates to the provision of certain projects and costs associated with those projects. These costs are therefore shown under charitable activities. Other expenditure is related to marketing and event costs and is shown under raising donations and legacies.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Freehold property - not provided

Taxation

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Fund accounting

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.

Going concern

The accounts have been prepared on going concern basis. The Trustees have reviewed the likely financial position of the Charity for the next 12 months and have determined that the Charity will be able to meet all of it's financial commitments during that period.
