REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2024
The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31st December 2024. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
a. Policies and Objectives
The Objects of the Charity are applicable primarily in the United Kingdom.
The Charity's main objectives are the advancement of education for the public benefit concerning the teachings and religion of Islam, the relief of poverty, sickness and suffering of any persons who are in need irrespective of their nationality, race, ethnic origin and religious beliefs; the advancement of religious and racial harmony for the benefit of the public, and to further such other purposes which are charitable under the laws of England and Wales as the trustees may think fit.
b. Strategies for achieving objectives
The Charity carries out a wide range of activities in pursuance of its charitable aims. The trustees consider that these activities, summarised below, provide benefits both to those who worship at its Mosque and the wider community.
Significant activities
Daily worship, weekly lessons in Arabic and Qur’an, provision of information and knowledge about Islam to those who request it, occasional educational conferences, seminars and exhibitions on Islamic themes, including interfaith events, interaction with and assistance to UK based registered Islamic charitable institutions.
Public benefit
The board believe that the charity's activities advance for the spiritual and physical needs of all people. Our activities provide a means by which people of any faith, or none, can gain an awareness of Islamic faith and can gain support and assistance to deal with difficulties or pressures they may be facing in everyday life whether that be spiritual needs, health issues, educational requirements, family issues or personal problems. Our charitable activities bring us into contact with all the people in and around the communities where we are located and we provide guidance, assistance and comfort to all people irrespective of their social, economic, ethnic or religious background. The objective and activities and achievement section of this report has set out the activities which the Charity undertakes for the public benefit. The board of trustees confirms that it has complied with the duty in respect of section 4 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the commission in determining the activities undertaken by the charity.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
During the year, the Trust continued to make progress towards its strategic objectives of promoting community welfare, supporting education, and fostering social and interfaith harmony. This was achieved through a range of charitable and community-based activities, as outlined below.
1. Religious Services
The Trust continued to fulfil its religious objectives by facilitating daily and weekly congregational prayers, with a total attendance of approx. 3200 people weekly, as well as seasonal observances during Ramadan and the two Eid festivals. These activities provided spiritual support and helped to maintain a sense of belonging and unity among community members.
2. Charity and Financial Assistance
The Trust provided financial assistance to organisations and individuals within the UK whose needs and objectives aligned with its charitable purposes. This included support for those facing financial hardship due to the rising cost of living. All grants were made in accordance with the Trust's financial guidelines and internal governance policies to ensure transparency and accountability.
3. Community Services
i. The Trust worked collaboratively with a range of partners to deliver programmes and services benefiting different community groups, including youth, women, and individuals with additional needs (the hearing-impaired community). 65 activities included:
-
Skills development and wellbeing sessions.
-
Family events and community outings promote inclusion and social connection.
-
Engagement with local bodies to coordinate services that respond to community priorities.
-
After prayer services and educational sessions.
-
Celebrating the important Islamic Festivals.
ii. Cultural and seasonal initiatives continued to be an essential part of the Trust's work. During Ramadan, daily meals were provided to those in need through the generous support of community donors, serving approximately 6,000 people during the month. The Trust also organised festival gatherings and family activities during school holiday periods, with over 35 events held throughout the year.
iii. Educational visits were welcomed throughout the year from local and national schools and universities, providing opportunities for learning and engagement around cultural and faith understanding.
4. Social Cohesion and Engagement
The Trust actively participated in initiatives that encourage interfaith collaboration, civic engagement, and stronger community relations. Through dialogue and shared activities, it continued to promote understanding, cooperation, and inclusivity across diverse community groups. Our social cohesion program aims to bring people together to combat hate and promote national citizenship around British values, without compromising the privacy of every religious group.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2024
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial position
As in every year, the majority of our income comes from the head office in Makkah. We received £504,283 (compared to £187,889 in 2023) in general donations and legacies from those supporters.
The total income for the year was £772,130 (2003: £436,882)
The total resources expended amounted to £936,691 (2023: £715,283)
The net deficit for the year amounted to £164,561 (2023: Net deficit £278,401).
The total accumulated reserves were £1,454,999 as at 31 December 2024 (2023: £1,619,560).
Prior year adjustments
Several prior year adjustments have been made to reflect a true and fair view of the financial statements.
The trustees have reviewed the restricted and unrestricted funds and decided that only the Zakat Fund constitutes a restricted fund. As a result, an adjustment of £561,276 has been made to reallocate part of the restricted funds to unrestricted funds. Consequently, the freehold property has been reclassified as unrestricted.
Furthermore, part of the freehold property which is being rented out as a pizza restaurant has been reclassified as Investment property on the balance sheet and reflected at its fair value of £1million. The historic cost was £100,000 and subsequently a revaluation gain of £900,000 has been accounted for.
The trustees have also reviewed the nature of the investment and consider that it was more appropriate to classify it as a fixed rather than a current asset.
Principal funding sources
The main sources of income are donations from the Muslim World league in Makkah, rental income from the pizza restaurant and general donations.
Investment policy and objectives
The investment of £200,000 in BSQ Holdings Ltd has resulted in a return of £50,000 during the year as a reduction in capital leaving a balance of £150,000 at the year end which the trustees consider to be the market value. The trustees are confident that the investment will appreciate in the long-term.
Reserves policy
Every year, the trustees seek to set aside sufficient reserves to ensure a balance between spending to meet the immediate needs of our operations and protecting our future work. This serves as having a buffer and allows time to adjust the charity to any unexpected operational challenges should there be a large reduction in the amount of income we receive. The trustees are aiming to maintain a reserve equivalent to 3 months working capital requirements.
Going concern
The trustees consider the charity to be a going concern. In making this assessment the trustees have considered the foreseeable future which is a period of not less than twelve months from the date of signing of the balance sheet.
FUTURE PLANS
The charity is committed to implementing its strategy for serving both Muslim and non-Muslim communities in the UK, adhering to British law, and ensuring the highest quality of service. The charity reviews regularly the operational strategy and conduct more activities for the public good.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document
The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust and constitutes an unincorporated charity.
Recruitment and appointment of new trustees
The board decides the appointment of new trustees. On appointment, new trustees sign a trustee declaration statement committing them to giving of their time and expertise. There is a formal induction programme for any newly appointed trustee, which includes an initial meeting with the CEO and the trustees.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF MUSLIM WORLD LEAGUE LONDON OFFICE TRUST
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Muslim World League London Office Trust
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Muslim World League London Office Trust (the charity) for the year ended 31st December 2024 which comprises the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the cash flow statement and related notes.
This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the charity’s trustees those matters I am required to state to them in this report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s trustees as a body, for my work, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity trustees of the charity you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
An independent examination does not involve gathering all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently does not cover all the matters that an auditor considers in giving their opinion on the financial statements. The planning and conduct of an audit goes beyond the limited assurance that an independent examination can provide. Consequently, I express no opinion as to whether the financial statements present a ‘true and fair’ view and my report is limited to those specific matters set out in the independent examiner’s statement.
Independent examiner's statement
Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, which is one of the listed bodies.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by Section 130 of the Act; or
-
the financial statements do not accord with those records; or
-
the financial statements do 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 financial statements to be reached.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with: the charity’s governing document, 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 Charities Act 2011.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at their fair value
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.
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.
Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.
Tangible fixed
Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation has been calculated so as to write off the cost of fixed assets less their estimated residual values over their expected useful economic lives. Full year's depreciation was charged in this period as follows:
| Freehold Buildings | 2% straight line |
|---|---|
| Alteration to Premises | 2% straight line |
| Fixtures and Fittings | 15% on reducing balance |
| Computers | 33.3% on reducing balance |
| Motor Vehicles | 25% on reducing balance |
| Land | not depreciated |
Investment property
Investment property is shown at fair value. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities. Fair value is determined by the trustees based on the results of periodic external valuations, property indexations, and observed local property transactions.
Taxation
The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for restricted purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charity's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.

There were no related party transactions for the year ended 31st December 2024 or 31 December 2023.
18. PRIOR YEAR ADJUSTMENT
The following prior year adjustments have been made:
-
A prior year adjustment of £100,000 has been made in respect of reallocating the historic cost for the investment property from Tangible assets to Investment property on the balance sheet. The investment property was then revalued to reflect the fair value of £1million. Therefore, a revaluation gain of £900,000 has been adjusted for. Both adjustments had been omitted.
-
The freehold property has been reclassified as unrestricted as it was incorrectly recorded as restricted.
-
A prior year adjustment of reallocation of the restricted funds of £561,276 to unrestricted funds as a correction.
-
A prior year adjustment of reallocating the £200,000 investment from Current Assets to Fixed Assets as a correction as the investment is considered long-term.
