EIC AL_MASJID TRUST
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
Financial Review
The incoming resources for the year amounted to £318,033 (2019: £657,885). The COVID-19 pandemic has severely reduced the income of the Trust due to the limited number of worshipers allowed to worship at the masjid initially and following the temporary closure of the masjid as a result of lockdown restrictions. However, EIC Al_Masjid Trust is still extremely grateful to all the supporters and expects the same support in the future.
Within incoming resources is £93,255 (2019: £124,338) relating to rent received from the letting out of the The Charity has given a 3-month rent waiver to its tenants in light of the pandemic.
The Charity held the following events in the year:

-
Daily and weekly on-line interactive lectures and promotion of health.
-
E-Consultation counselling services on marital, familial, religious and other personal issues.
-
Ramadhan additional prayers facilitated but within safety measures of Covid-19 regulations.
The Centre provided private counselling sessions with the imams including marriage counselling, and advice on different aspects of Islam.

TRUSTEE FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
During the year, the Trust has identified an instance whereby proceeds from the funeral facility services had not been accounted for in the accounting records. This has since been adjusted for accordingly in these financial statements and included within other debtors. In accordance with accounting regulations which require debtors to be assessed for impairment at each balance sheet date, a 50% provision of £34,459 has been made against this balance. Despite this, the Trustees are proactively pursuing the full amount owed. Trustees promptly filed a Serious Incident Report with the Charity Commission when made aware of this financial irregularity by the manager. The Commission is regularly updated with the development.
Outlook for 2021
In the coming year, the Trust is expected to continue with its fundraising activities to improve facilities for its users especially for the ladies and the youth. The wudhu and toilet facilities are in need of refurbishment and to incorporate a water recycling plant would cut down on the water bill.
The roof for all buildings require extensive repair. The trustees are getting several quotes before making the final decision on the firm to engage for these works.
The funeral hearse and van are also likely to be replaced in 2021.
Reserves policy
The Trustees have not yet formalised a specific reserves policy, beyond the requirement that reserves levels are regularly monitored to ensure that sufficient reserves are maintained to meet anticipated future needs.
Investment policy
The Charity has no investments apart from that of an investment property and cash deposits retained with major UK retail banks.
Trustee
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in notes to and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) 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 2015).

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whethcr the financial statements a5 8 whole are free from inaterial misstatement. wh¢ther due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a Iiigli level of assurance, bul 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 iii the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisiotLS of users taken on the basis of these financial Statements. Irregularities, includirLg fi'aud, are instaii¢¢s of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedw.es in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to deteet material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent lo which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, 1$ detailed below. Based on our understanding of the Charity and the industry in which it operates. we identified that tlie principal risks nf nnn4()mpliance witli laws and regulations ielated to tlie acts by the Charity, whicli we contrary to applicable laws and regulations including fi'aud, aiid we considered Il)e cxlent to whicli non coinpliance might have a material effect on the financial slalemenls. We also considered those laws and regulations ihdL liuvr a diL¢¢t iiiipact on thc preparation of tlie finan¢i&l 8t&tements such as the e.ompAnie A¢t 2006. We evaluated management's incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of tlie financial slalements (including tlie risk of override of controls), and determined tliat the principal risks were related to inflated income. Audit procedures performed ineluded.. re.vip.w nf the financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation, enquiries of management and testing of journals and evaluating wlietlier tliere was evidence of bias by the Trustees that represented a risk of matcrial misstatement due to fraud. There are inhercnt limitations in the audit procedures described above and the further removed non - compliaiice with laws and regulations is from the evcnts and transactions reflected in tlie fiiiancial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. Also, the iisk of not delecting a material misstalemenl due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one Tesulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by. for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion.
