Law applicable to Charities in England & Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true & fair view of the charity's financial activities during the year and of its financial position at the end of the year. In preparing financial statements giving a true and fair view, the trustees should follow best practice and:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed,

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF AL ATHARIYYAH
I report on the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 30 June 2025, which are set out on pages 6 to 13.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 and that an independent examination is desired. The charity's gross income did not exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of ACCA.
It is my responsibility to:
-
1 examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; 2 to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act, and
-
3 to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of Independent Examiner's Statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair' view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent Examiner's Statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
1 which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements:
(a) (b)
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act have not been met; or
2 to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

The charity's gross income did not exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of ACCA.
It is my responsibility to:
