## **THE KHOJA SHIA ITHNA-ASHRI (SOUTH LONDON) JAMAAT (HYDERI ISLAMIC CENTRE)**
## **REPORT OF THE MANAGING TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024**
The Managing Trustees have pleasure in presenting their annual report together with the audited financial statements of The Khoja Shia Ithna-Ashri (South London) Jamaat (the Charity) for the year ended 31 December 2024. The Charity operates as Hyderi Islamic Centre (Hyderi).
The Trustees confirm that the annual report and financial statements of Hyderi comply with the current statutory requirements of the Charity's governing document and the provisions of the applicable charities Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP), UK Accounting Standards and the Charities Act 2011.
## **Structure, governance and management**
The Khoja Shia Ithna-Ashri (South London) Jamaat (Hyderi) is a registered charity (No: 287686). It is governed by the constitution adopted on 2 October 1983. A revised and updated constitution was approved by members on 5 February 2023. The Khoja Shia Ithna-Ashri (South London) Jamaat promotes and advances the Islamic religion in accordance with the principles of the Shia Ithna-Ashri faith. Its objectives and powers are set up in the constitution. It is managed by elected Managing Trustees who are responsible for the day to day running of the Charity.
## **Public Benefit Statement**
The Managing Trustees have considered the general guidance on public benefit issued by the Charities Commission and have taken due regard of that guidance. The Managing Trustees consider that they are satisfied that the charity's activities do provide a public benefit.
## **Objectives and activities**
The Khoja Shia Ithna-Ashri (South London) Jamaat's objective is to advance the religion of Islam and education, the provision of social and religious welfare activities and to provide relief of poverty among Shia Muslims.
## a) Propagation of Islam
Propagation of Islam is the main activity of the Charity and this was carried out by arranging regular lectures at the Centre and arranging weekly religious programmes in English and other languages. Madressa classes were also held to teach Quran to students.
## b) Educational support
During the year, support was provided to various individuals and children were taught at the Hyderi Islamic school and Hyderi Nursery.
## c) Social, religious and welfare activities
During the year, Hyderi organised various activities in celebration of Ramadan, Eid, Hajj and other Islamic festivals for members and new converts who have no affiliation with other Islamic communities. Counselling sessions were provided to those with marriage and family predicaments. Facilities for weddings and funerals are carried out throughout the year.
## **Achievements and performance**
The Charity continues to provide prayer facilities at the Centre to promote the Muslim faith to all age groups and to provide services to learn the teachings of the Quran. The Charity offers facilities to
4 / 25
members to promote the Muslim way of life through guest speakers. The Charity continues to offer membership and burial facilities and receive income from its rental properties. The Nursery and Islamic schools for the children have been a successful furtherance of offering Islamic teaching. These achievements would not have been possible without the commitment and dedication of volunteers.
## **Objectives and Investment Powers**
In order to meet the objectives, the Managing Trustees can secure the provision of Mosques and Imambaras (centres), provide and establish schools and education and provide other religious services. The Managing Trustees can raise funds for the upkeep, restoration and repair of the buildings used for this purpose and to provide other services to meet these objectives. Trust funds of over £15,000 can only be invested or utilised on a single project after the approval of the general body.
## **Appointment of trustees**
The existing Managing Trustees were elected on 4 June 2023 replacing the previous Trustees to serve for a term of two years.
## **Related parties**
The Charity does not hold assets on behalf of any another Charity, company or individual.
## **Results and Financial review**
The results for the year are as shown in the financial statements. The statement of financial activities shows the incoming resources, and the resources expended by the different activities conducted under the Charity's name. It also shows how the Charity's funds have been applied during the year. The gross receipts of the Charity were £1,457,361 (2023: £1,385,275). Of this £403,965 were restricted funds and gross expenditure amounted to £1,248,599 (2023: £1,127,285). Gift aid receipt was £74,149 (2023: £70,086). As the Charity's income is dependent upon the goodwill of worshippers, the managing trustees are of the opinion that the level of direct activities should be proportionate to such income. Accordingly, many of the activities during the year were arranged to be self-sufficient with funding raised accordingly at the time.
At 31 December 2024, the balance on the restricted fund was £70,108 (2023: £56,158) and Burial Funds were £345,510 (2023: £280,065).
## **Fixed Assets**
The changes in fixed assets are shown in the notes to the financial statements. During the year the charity purchased a new hearse and also purchased a new cemetery plot, which have both been reflected in the accounts.
## **Investment Properties**
Statement of Recommended Practice, "Accounting and Reporting by Charities" requires investment properties to be included in the financial statements at market value. The Investment properties were valued in January 2021 by an independent professional valuer SW17 Surveyors Limited. The managing trustees are of the opinion that these reflect current market value.
5 / 25
## **Key management personnel remuneration**
Trustees are required to disclose all relevant interests and register them with the Secretariat, and, in accordance with policy, withdraw from decisions where a conflict of interest arises.
Details of trustee expenses and related party transactions are disclosed in notes 21 and 22 to the accounts.
## **Risk Management**
The Managing Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Charity is exposed, in particular those relating to the operations and finances including fundraising and use of restricted funds. The Managing Trustees are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate our exposure to these risks and the processes implemented are designed to minimise any potential impact on the Charity should any of these risks materialise.
## **Reserves Policy**
The Managing Trustees have examined the Charity's requirement for reserves and has established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds held by the Charity should continue to be a minimum of 3 months of the unrestricted expenditure of Hyderi only. This equates to approximately £246,196 (2023: £169,880)
## **Pioneer Place**
During 2024 the charity completed the fire safety upgrades and new fencing was placed around the perimeter. The site was partially damaged by flooding during the year for which repairs and renovations works were undertaken to rectify and an insurance claim was made for the works.
## **Transfer of funds**
During the year the trustees called an SGM with the members to approve the transfer of designated funds raised over the years for the purchase of freehold property, investment properties and fixture and fittings. This is mentioned in note 24 of the accounts.
## **Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities**
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England & Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the Charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
- Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently
- Observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
- Make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- Prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue to operate in the future.
- State whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
6 / 25
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations and the provisions of the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
## **Disclosure of information to auditors**
Each of the trustees has confirmed that there is no other information of which they are aware which is relevant to the audit, but of which the auditor is unaware. They have further confirmed that they have taken appropriate steps to identify such relevant information and to establish that the auditors are aware of such information.
## **Auditors**
A resolution will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting that Brian Paul Limited be re-appointed as Auditors of the Charity.

**THE KHOJA SHIA ITHNA-ASHRI (SOUTH LONDON) JAMAAT (HYDERI ISLAMIC CENTRE)**
## **Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of The Khoja Shia Ithna-Ashri (South London) Jamaat (Hyderi Islamic Centre)**
## **Year ended 31 December 2024**
## **Opinion**
We have audited the financial statements of the Khoja Shia Ithna-Ashri (South London) Jamaat (Hyderi Islamic Centre) (the 'charity') for the year ended 31 December 2024 which comprise the statement of financial activities, statement of financial position, 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 FRS 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:
- give a true and fair view of the state of the charity's affairs as at 31 December 2024 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended;
- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice;
- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.
## **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 auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’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**
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the ISAs (UK) require us to report to you where:
- The trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is not appropriate, or
- The trustees have not disclosed in the financial statements any identified material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the charity’s ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for a period of at least twelve months form the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information. 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.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, 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 audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. 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.
## **Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Charities Act 2011**
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
- the information given in the trustees' report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
- the trustees' report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception**
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the trustees' report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities Act 2011 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
- adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
- certain disclosures of trustees' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
-
- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

## **Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of The Khoja Shia Ithna-Ashri (South London) Jamaat (Hyderi Islamic Centre)**
## **Year ended 31 December 2024**
## **Responsibilities of trustees**
As explained more fully in the trustees' responsibilities statement, the trustees (who are also the directors 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 charity'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 charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
## **Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements**
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 auditor’s 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:
## **The extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities including fraud.**
Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, was as follows:
- the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations;
- we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the company through discussions with directors and other management, and from our knowledge and experience of the charity sector;
- we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the company, including the Charities Act 2011, UK Taxes Acts, data protection, anti-bribery, employment, environmental and health and safety legislation;
- we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management and inspecting legal correspondence; and
- identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit.

**THE KHOJA SHIA ITHNA-ASHRI (SOUTH LONDON) JAMAAT (HYDERI ISLAMIC CENTRE)**
## **Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of The Khoja Shia Ithna-Ashri (South London) Jamaat (Hyderi Islamic Centre)**
## **Year ended 31 December 2024**
We assessed the susceptibility of the company's financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by:
- making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud;
- considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations; and
To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we:
- performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships;
- tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions;
- investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions; and
In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to:
- agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation;
- enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims;
There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of noncompliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs (UK), we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
`·` Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the internal control.
- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the trustees.
`·` Conclude on the appropriateness of the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the charity to cease to continue as a going concern.

## **Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of The Khoja Shia Ithna-Ashri (South London) Jamaat (Hyderi Islamic Centre)**
## **Year ended 31 December 2024**
- Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
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.
## **Use of our report**
This report is made solely to the charity's members, as a body, in accordance with section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and regulations made under section 154 of that Act. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

## **THE KHOJA SHIA ITHNA-ASHRI (SOUTH LONDON) JAMAAT (HYDERI ISLAMIC CENTRE)**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024**
## **1 General information**
The Charity is a registered Charity in England and Wales and is unincorporated. The address of the Charity is 26 Estreham Road, London, SW16 5PQ.
## **1.1 Statement of compliance**
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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 2015) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)) and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
The charity 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 note(s).
## **1.2 Accounting Policies**
## **1.2.1 Basis of preparation**
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of investment properties measured at fair value through income or expenditure. The financial statements are prepared in sterling which is the functional currency of the entity.
## **1.3 Going concern**
There are no material uncertainties about the Charity's ability to continue for the foreseeable future. The Trustees are therefore satisfied that the Charity has sufficient reserves to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future.
## **1.4 Aggregate Accounts and Related Activities**
The consolidated accounts include the results of the financial activities of Hyderi Jamaat, Hyderi Nursery School and Hyderi Islamic School prepared to 31 December each year. A consolidated Statement of Financial Activities, Statement of Financial Position and Cash Flow Statement at the year-end has also been prepared.
## **1.5 Freehold Land and Properties**
The freehold property is valued at historic cost and is not depreciated, as the Mosque and related community buildings have a considerable long useful life. This is a departure from accounting standard but in the opinion of the Trustees presents the buildings at a fairer value relative to recent valuations conducted. Where, refurbishment and maintenance take place such expenditure is charged to the income and expenditure account in the year in which it is incurred. Accordingly, the Trustees consider that the life of the freehold property is such that its depreciation is not significant. Freehold land is not depreciated.
## **1.6 Leasehold Land**
This is an 80-year lease acquired on a plot In Section 2 of Rowan Road Cemetery of 236 reserved graves at £1,100 each at a total cost of £259,600. This is being depreciated at the rate of £1,100 per
16 / 25
burial that takes place each year. The cost of the land and the related liability has been reflected in the financial statements.
During the year the charity purchased a further plot at Bluebell cemetery of 282 graves at a cost of £4,344 each at a total cost of £1,225,008. This is being depreciated at the rate of £4,344 per burial that takes place each year. The cost of the land and the related liability has been reflected in the financial statements.
## **1.7 Other Tangible Fixed Assets**
Other tangible fixed assets are stated at historical cost or valuation less depreciation. Depreciation is provided on all other tangible fixed assets at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual values of each asset over its expected useful life as follow
Fixtures and Equipment : 20% per annum by the reducing balance method. Hearse : 25% per annum by the reducing balance method.
## **1.8 Donated Tangible Assets**
Donated tangible assets which can be valued are included in the financial statements at their estimated market value. Donated tangible assets that are impractical to value are not included in the financial statements.
## **1.9 Stock**
Stock consists of coffins and other burial related supplies. These are charged as expenses based on usage. Other stock consists of books and toys. The financial statements do not include any stock of books and toys as these are replaced continuously. All such costs are charged as expenses when incurred.
## **1.10 Disbursements and Resources Expended**
The disbursements of various funds received were made according to the Islamic laws, with the guidance and permission of our Marjah and as per the constitution of the Charity. Support costs are those incurred in connection with governance and administration of the Charity and in compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements.
## **1.11 Investment Properties**
Investment property is included in the Statement of Financial Position at open market value. The value is generally established by reference to independent 3rd party valuations obtained by the Trustees. A full valuation was carried out in January 2021 by SW17 Surveyors Limited. The view of the Executive Committee is that the valuation reflects the current market value.
## **1.12 Restricted Funds**
Restricted funds are funds which have restrictions imposed by the donors. These can only be utilised in accordance with the donors' wishes and are not available for any other use. Restricted funds also include amounts collected as agents.
## **1.13 Designated Funds**
Designated funds are funds which have been set aside or utilised for a specific purpose and are not available for general use.
17 / 25
## **1.14 Income**
These comprise income which is accounted for in the period in which it is received. Grants and Gift Aid are recognised when receivable and subscriptions for membership are recognised when received. Gift Aid received is treated as unrestricted income and utilised against the support costs of the charity.
All income is included gross and related expenditure is included as expenditure. Investment income is included in the accounts on an accruals basis.
## **1.15 Deferred Income**
Deferred Income is recognised in the period to which it relates.
## **1.16 Expenditure**
Costs of generating funds are those costs incurred in furthering the aim and objects of the charity.
Governance comprises the costs of compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements and costs related to the strategic management of the charity.
Support costs are costs which are common to a number of activities and are charged to activities on the basis of a proportion of the use of the resource to the charitable activity.
In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), the general volunteer time of members and trustees is not recognised. The Trustees’ annual report includes more information about their contribution.
## **1.17 Donated Services**
No amounts are included in the financial statements for services donated by volunteers because these amounts cannot be quantified with reasonable accuracy.
## **1.18 Support cost**
The number of staff involved in an activity is deemed to be the appropriate basis for allocating support costs as it closely reflects the resources usage of the support functions of the core activities.
## **1.19 Taxation**
As the Charity is not registered for VAT, all costs shown are inclusive of VAT. No provision has been made for corporation or deferred tax as Hyderi is a registered charity and exempt from tax.
## **1.20 Financial instruments**
The Charity has no Financial Instruments.
## **1.21 Pensions**
Employees of the Charity are entitled to join a defined contribution pension scheme. The charity contribution is restricted to the contributions disclosed in note 7b. There were no outstanding contributions at the year end. The costs of the defined contribution scheme are included within staff costs.
