The trustees assure that the annual report is compliant with the current statutory requirements and those within the statement of recommended practice (SORP). Since we are a smaller entity, our reports are prepared in accordance with the financial reporting standard for smaller entities (FRSSE) in the UK and the Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).

Mercy To Humanity is a unique organisation established in September 2019. Our ethos is to eliminate poverty through humanitarian work and disaster relief. This operational year we have increased the number of families we support on our flagship Orphan Guardianship program.” - Nadeem Naz

YEAR ENDING AUGUST 2025

Mission Statement: because of who they are and where they’re from. It is our mission to empower these men, women, and children by working towards eliminating poverty through humanitarian work, disaster relief, medical aid, and empowerment projects.

Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said: “ Convey from me even if it is (only) one ayah .” Our fundamental mission is not only to convey the beautiful message of Islam whilst carrying out our work, but also to support new Muslims who have entered this amazing journey making sure they have a solid Islamic foundation which will allow them to please their Lord and earn His pleasure.

Vision: Our approach to humanitarian work is simple - we do everything as the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) would do! Our name is taken from the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) too – ‘Mercy To Humanity’ is the title given to the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) by God Himself.

Page 3

The fact that the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is ranked number one in Michael Hart’s “The 100: A Ranking of the Most Influential Persons in History”, is a testimony of his universal appeal and success, and reflects the deep care and compassion he showed to the vulnerable - irrespective of age, gender, race, culture, colour, or creed.

There is no doubt that the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) represents an amazing humanitarian. Therefore, Mercy To Humanity has modelled all its humanitarian work on the teachings and recommendations of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) himself. We truly believe this approach is the best way of serving society - providing hope, health, and happiness to all of humanity! To showcase to the world the love, compassion, and mercy of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) who was the kindest and most selfless man to ever walk this earth. Being extremely kindhearted, his eyes brimmed with tears at the slightest sign of inhumanity.

The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) life-mission was caring for those going through distress, whether they’re young, old, rich, poor, weak or strong. Our vision is to emulate his character in everything that we do and teach others how to follow his way of life, the ultimate pathway to eternal bliss: Paradise.

Activities: At Mercy To Humanity, we are passionate about; building wells, caring for orphans, delivering medical aid and healthcare, providing nutritious meals, opening schools, orphanages and mosques, caring for widows, the elderly, and the environment! The trustees focus on activities which are in line with long-term aims of eradicating poverty in the areas where we work. It is vital for our charity to provide relief which in the foreseeable future, would enable these communities to become as self-sufficient and independent as possible. Adhering to our charitable objectives, our activities include, but are not limited to these channels:

scheme, each child within the family is assessed case-by-case, looking at their circumstances and living conditions carefully to adequate the best care and support needed. Under the Orphan Guardianship programme the beneficiary receives funding for these categories: Food & Subsistence (includes financial assistance and food packages), Education (Including school fees, books, school supplies, and travel.), Health (Includes medical payments), Social Uplift (includes extracurricular and group activities, celebrations and events with the charity and outside), Rent, Electricity and Internet, Child Protection (Includes home visits to ensure the child’s safety and provide intervention when needed. We currently have 17 families under the Orphan Guardianship.

It is important to remember the hadith of our beloved prophet Muhammad (pbuh) who lost both of his parents by the age of 6.

The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said: “The one who looks after an orphan and myself will be together in Jannah like this” and he held his two fingers together like this to illustrate!

instilling the love of the book of Allah in their hearts! Hence, we offer our children the ability to learn and memorise the Qu’ran through our hifz sponsorship. It is with immense pleasure that we have seen first-hand the determination these children have to attend classes and learn the beautiful book of Allah. Even with the pandemic and lockdown, the children have carried on with online learning methods.

“Teach your children Qu’ran and the Qu’ran will teach them everything”

The Messenger of Allah said (Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 2699): “Whoever takes a path upon which to obtain knowledge, Allah makes the path to Paradise easy for him.

The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said – “When a man passes away, his worldly acts come to an end, but three acts; recurring charity, knowledge (by which others benefit or a pious son who prays for him will bear continuous reward (for the deceased)”

How we work: The charity carries out its work in two main ways:

  1. Through direct delivery – actively visiting our countries of work and carrying out the work first-hand. This is at least until we establish our own staff in these areas.

  2. Delivering our charitable goals through our partner organisations. Currently, we work with nine partners, including Orphans in Need and One Ummah.

Working with partners who share a common aim can aid with cutting costs, improving outcomes and offers a more economical approach. As we are a small entity, collaboration is beneficial for us to seek ways to create a sustainable long-term future. By working together, we have been able to improve awareness and increase our fundraising by doubling our reach and receiving greater exposure.

volunteers to develop knowledge, witness their work and meet our beneficiaries. It allows them to see their work first-hand, providing them with a sense of accomplishment and continued motivation.

OUR PARTNERS

Orphans in Need: Orphans in Need has a long history of serving and supporting widows and orphans in Jammu and Kashmir and other countries. For the holy month of Ramadan, on behalf of us, Orphans in Need will be feeding widows and orphans by providing them with the essentials. This project aims to provide relief and to share the joy and happiness of Ramadan with deprived and underprivileged widows and orphans in Kashmir, India & Gaza.

One Ummah: An award-winning humanitarian and disaster relief aid organisation who are based in the UK. One Ummah provides aid across more than 15 countries. Their aim is to relieve suffering across the world. Their focus is to provide relief to those in need and to empower projects that will give beneficiaries the opportunity to change their own and their families lives for the better. One Ummah has expanded their charity across the UK and now abroad.

Mercy Relief: Mercy Relief was founded in 2008 in Birmingham. The founders were actively involved in community work amongst the British-Yemeni community as well as other communities in Birmingham. The focus of their work is around orphans in Yemen and actively participating in relief programmes. Over the years the number of orphans that they support with their relief programmes in Yemen has increased. They also support those who are poor and needy. They are aiming to expand their activities to other parts of the Middle East, Asia and Africa over time.

Charity Meals: A food charity that will feed the hungry locally and globally. In a world that produces enough food for all, hunger need not exist for the millions of people afflicted with it at home and abroad. They support the most vulnerable communities in the UK. Behind every door, down every street, there are tens of thousands of old people, families, children, who are experiencing the indignity and desperation of empty fridges and emptier tummies. They also support the most vulnerable communities who are suffering in some of the poorest countries in the world, responding to the complex needs of all those they support.

Erth al-Mustafa Foundation: The Erth al-Mustafa Foundation is a Malaysia-based charity established on 22 December 2016. They are dedicated to humanitarian aid. Some of their projects include; food pack distributions, emergency aid to regions affected by crisis, building homes, refurbishments, providing clean water, sponsorship of orphans and family support to those in need.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

After weighing out our income, expenditure and other factors which may affect our ability to continue our work, the trustees have concluded that the charity has adequate resources to continue its operational existence for the foreseeable future. In addition, we have started community fundraising.

We are a 100% donation-based charity, with operational costs covered through our Gift Aid and admin fund. Over 7,500 generous donors contribute small monthly amounts - ranging from £5 to £30 - which enables us to uphold our 100% donation policy. We are deeply grateful to our donors for making this possible.

How the charity obtains its funds: We are extremely thankful to the public for their generous donations; this is where ALL of our charities funding comes from. We raise our funds primarily through advertising, from running Facebook and Google ads and using other platforms of social media. In addition working with volunteers who fundraise within the community.

How we have spent our funds: The distribution of funds is dependent on what project the donors would like to donate towards.

CONCLUSION

This year was a challenge due to the situation in the Middle East. With donors abandoning ongoing projects and donating towards the emergency need. Despite these restrictions, the charity was still able to achieve the goals we had set and projects were fulfilled and expanded. Overall, many people across the world were able to receive financial support and benefitted from the work carried out.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF MERCY TO HUMANITY

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Mercy To Humanity (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 31 August 2025 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Cash Flows and the related notes, 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, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (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 United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council'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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF MERCY TO HUMANITY (CONTINUED)

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' Report thereon. The Trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the Annual Report. 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. 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 course of 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.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the Trustees' Responsibilities Statement, 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF MERCY TO HUMANITY (CONTINUED)

Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.

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 an Auditors' Report 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.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs (UK), we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

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 Auditors' Report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2025

1. Accounting policies

1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements

The financial statements 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), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

Mercy To Humanity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.

The charity has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemptions in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland':

1.2 Income

All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.

1.3 Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, 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 classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

Expenditure on raising funds includes all expenditure incurred by the Charity to raise funds for its charitable purposes and includes costs of all fundraising activities events and non-charitable trading.

Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.

All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the Charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the institution with whom the funds are deposited.

1.5 Intangible assets and amortisation

Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

The estimated useful lives are as follows:

Computer software and website - 10 years development

1.6 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.

Depreciation is provided on the following basis:

Fixtures and fittings - 20% on cost
Office equipment - 20% on cost

1.7 Debtors

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2025

1. Accounting policies (continued)

1.9 Liabilities and provisions

Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance Sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.

Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.

Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities as a finance cost.

1.10 Fund accounting

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.

General Funds, are funds that have been donated to our Admin Fund from our generous donors. These funds are used to run the charity, expand and also deliver new projects or fund deficits from existing projects.

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Charity for particular purposes. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.

Mercy to Humanity works in close partnership with Miresi per Boten, a charity operating in Albania (registration number/ Nipt: M036223371) with aligned charitable objectives and offices in Lagja "Syrja Dylgjeri", Rruga "25 Nentori", Pall 436, Elbasaan, Albania. The two organisations are separate legal entities, but collaborate under a Memorandum of Agreement dated 5 January 2021, which formalises their operational relationship.

Included in other creditors is the amount of £8,507 (2024 - £67,827) held on behalf of Miresi per Boten. The balance relates to funds held at year end, designated for use by Miresi per Boten in furtherance of shared charitable objectives.

The arrangement is interest free and has been entered into solely to support the operational needs of Miresi per Boten. The full amount remains payable as at year end.
