We have<br>also been holding the mentoring and<br>training of our team of trustees,<br>volunteers and the people accepting<br>the Islamic faith.<br>We have been conducting Our training<br>and teaching sessions which have<br>moved online due to covid restrictions<br>but continue to be available for the<br>wider community to join in. These<br>sessions are broadcast live on<br>YouTube and stay on our YouTube<br>channel for anyone to benefit from it.<br>We have between 70 to 90 members of<br>public attending these sessions live,<br>which take place three times a week. In<br>addition our YouTube channel<br>subscription has surpassed hundreds,<br>thus benefitting a wide range of public<br>viewers. These sessions are focused<br>on explaining the message of Islam in<br>clear and simple terms to dispel any<br>misconceptions about Islam and at the<br>same time to develop positive<br>community relations with a view to<br>building stronger and safer<br>communities across the country.<br>It was perhaps this aspect of our<br>sessions that was recognised by the<br>mainstream media and BBC Scotland’s<br>Sunday faith programme broadcast on<br>14thFeb 2021 our Friday sermon on the<br>topic “Commonalities between Islam,<br>Christianity and Judaism<br>Social media interactions have provided<br>an easily accessible platform for the<br>Muslim community members as well as<br>the wider community to engage in a<br>mutually respectable manner. Many<br>questions have been answered and<br>myths busted about the misconceptions<br>about Islam.|





These objectives in mind we have been able to produce about 50 small booklets and the complete translation of the Quran in English language, tailored to the audience in UK. A complete biography of the last messenger Muhummed Pbuh has been compiled as well in order to present the life story of the Messenger for wider community with a view to spreading awareness about the true nature of his person thus dispelling any misconceptions and helping build stronger community relations based on evidence and mutual respect. We have managed to develop good relations with various community organisations in order to form partnerships for the furtherance of our objectives. Our partners include the central mosque of Birmingham, radio salaam Birmingham, Airdrie Mosque in Scotland, FACIC a community organisation in Scotland that works with the local council to dispel misconception about Islam by organising community open days and providing food bank and counselling services to youth. We provide all literature, pop up exhibition stands, posters and other printing material to FACIC to facilitate the conduct of their activities. We are open to helping all such organisations up and down the country. We have been providing literature and copies of Quran to various prisons in UK on request of the prison services. This has opened another avenue of public benefit by helping the prisoner inmates on their road to rehabilitation and identifying their spiritual needs with a view to strengthening their self-image and making them positive and constructive citizens on their release.

## Islamic Outreach Project Independent Examiners Report to the Trustees 

## For the year ended 31 December 2021 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charitable company for the year ended 31 December 2021. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity Trustees, who are also directors for the purposes of company law, are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act').  In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiners statement** 

I have completed my examination.  I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or 

4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). 

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.
