TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
Financial review
The statement of financial activities on page 6 shows the incoming and outgoing resources for the year ended 31 December 2020.
Total income of the trust amounted to £389,205, a decrease of £12,738 on the previous year. However, the total expenditure for the Trust decreased from £338,468 in 2019 to £269,616 in 2020. As a result, the net assets of the Trust increased by £119,589 when compared to 2019.
The balance sheet on page 9 shows the financial position of the Trust at 31 December 2020. At the year end
total net assets amounted to £760,743.
The net assets of the unrestricted funds are held to meet the support and governance costs and also to be applied towards the Trusts charitable objectives.
Reserves policy
The policy of the Trust is to maintain unrestricted funds, which are free reserves of the Trust, at a level in excess of unrestricted expenditure. This provides for sufficient funds to be available for all management and administration costs as well as ensuring that adequate funds continue to be available for the costs of its charitable activities.
The balance held as unrestricted funds at 31 December 2020 was £760,743 of which £344,289 is regarded as free reserves, after allowing for funds represented by tangible fixed assets. The current level of reserves is therefore considered to be sufficient to meet the current and future commitments of the Trust. Furthermore, the Trustees are confident that continued support from connected charities and donations from the community will enable the Trust to continue its operating activities.
Risk management
The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, in particular those relating to the operations and finances of the Trust and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate their exposure to the major risks.
Plans for the future
The Trustees do not plan for any significant changes to the Trust's activities.

AL-JAMEAH AL-SAYFIYAH TRUST
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF AL-JAMEAH AL-SAYFIYAH TRUST
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Al-Jameah Al-Sayfiyah Trust (‘the Trust’) for the year ended 31 December 2020 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, and the notes to the financial statements, 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:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charity’s affairs as at 31 December 2020 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
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 Trust 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
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 Trust’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.
Other information
The Trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and 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.

AL-JAMEAH AL-SAYFIYAH TRUST
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE TRUSTEES OF AL-JAMEAH AL-SAYFIYAH TRUST
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the trustees' r eport; or
-
sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of Trustees
As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, set out on page 3, the Trustees 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 directors 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 Trust’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 cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
We have been appointed as auditors 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 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.
Extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting ireegularities, including fraud
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect irregularities, including fraud. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below. However, the primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests with both those charged with governance of the entity and management. Our approach was as follows:
-
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that are applicable to the charity and determined that the most significant are those that relate to the reporting framework being FRS102, Charities SORP (FRS 102), Charities Act 2011, employment legislation and the safeguarding of children.
-
We understood how the charity is complying with those frameworks by making enquiries of management and seeking representations from those charged with governance. We corroborated our understanding by reviewing supporting documentation including trustee meeting minutes.
-
We assessed the susceptibility of the charity’s financial statements to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur by considering the risk of management override of internal control and by designating revenue recognition as a fraud risk. We performed journal entry testing by specific risk criteria, with a focus on journals indicating large or unusual transactions based on our understanding of the business. We tested completeness of income through substantive tests performed, analytical review procedures and cut off tests on the revenue recognised.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE TRUSTEES OF AL-JAMEAH AL-SAYFIYAH TRUST
-
Based on this understanding we designed our audit procedures to identify non-compliance with such laws and regulations. Our procedures involved enquiries of management and those charged with governance, review of legal and professional expenses and review of trustee meeting minutes.
-
The charity is a regulated entity under the supervision of the Charities Commission. As such, the Senior Statutory Auditor considered the experience and expertise of the engagement team to ensure that the team had the appropriate competence and capabilities.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the Trustees, 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 Trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors' 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 Trust and its Trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

AL-JAMEAH AL-SAYFIYAH TRUST
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
1 Accounting policies
Charity information
Al-Jameah Al-Sayfiyah Trust is an unincorporated charity governed by a trust deed. The Trust is registered in the United Kingdom and its registered office is at 6 Mohammedi Park, Rowdell Road, Northolt, Middlesex, UB5 6AG.
The principal accounting policies adopted and judgement in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows.
1.1 Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the the Trust's deed, the Charities Act 2011 and “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 Trust meets the definition of a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy or note.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling , which is the functional currency of the Trust. Monetary a mounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
1.2 Going concern
The Trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Trust's ability to continue as a going concern.
1.3 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
The Trustees do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities within the next period.
1.4 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
1.5 Incoming resources
All income is recognised once the Trust has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
(i) Where possible, donations are accounted for on a receivable basis. However, it is recognised that voluntary donations from individuals cannot be treated in this manner when there is no contractually enforceable right to donations promised. For this reason donations from individuals are normally accounted for on a receipts basis.
(ii) Fees from the Arabic learning programme are credited to income on a received basis.
(iii) Donated assets are recognised when control over the expected economic benefits that flow from the donation has passed to the charity and are included in the financial statements at estimated market value as determined by the Trustees.

1 Accounting policies
(Continued)
1.6 Expenditure
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the Trust to that expenditure, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis. Support costs and governance costs are allocated or apportioned to the applicable expenditure categories.
Grants payable are payments made to third parties in the furtherance of the charitable objects of the Trust. Unconditional grant offers are accrued once the recipient has been notified of the grant award.
Governance costs comprise all costs involving the public accountability of the Trust and its compliance with regulations and good practice.
1.7 Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
No depreciation is provided on the Trust’s long leasehold property. Given the length of life of this property and that it is maintained to a high standard, it is the opinion of the Trustees that the residual value would be sufficiently high to make a depreciation charge immaterial.
Individual fixed assets costing more than £1,000 are capitalised at cost and depreciated by equal annual amounts over their estimated useful lives as follows:-
Long leasehold property Nil Fixtures and fittings Over 4-8 years
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities for the year.
1.8 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consists of cash in hand and bank deposits.
1.9 Employee benefits
Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the the Trust is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
1.10 Retirement benefits
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.
1.11 Charitable activities
Costs of charitable activities include grants made in the year.
1.12 Irrecoverable VAT
Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the expenditure heading for which it was incurred.
