The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) 2005 Act and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006.

It is my responsibility to examine the accounts as required under section 44(1) © of the Act and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of independent examiner's statement

My examination is carries out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison on the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeks explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and, consequently, I do not express an audit opinion on the accounts.

Activities and achievements

The charity carries out a wide range of activities in pursuance of its charitable aims. The trustees consider these activities beneficial for those who attend the mosque and the wider community.

Religious activities

Mosque provides a centre for prayers and worship and for the activities associated with Muslim faith, during the year under review, wider range of religious services and activities were offered, including:

Prayers: The Mosque is opened all day and Friday (Jumma Prayer) prayers.

Quran Teaching: Learning to read Qur'an is considered an important element of religious education and training. Mosque continues to provide this facility for the young and elderly. Also, the men's classes on Monday and the ladies classes on a Tuesday were started back on a weekly basis.

Fitrana: It is a part of Muslim faith that Fitrana should be given on behalf of everyone in the house by the head of the family before Eid prayer. A Muslim need not given Fitrana through the Mosque but Mosque do provide opportunity for those attending it. Committee of the Mosque collects and distributes the Fitrana, none of which is used to fund the Mosque. No commission is taken for the collection or distribution of Fitrana. It is distributed in line with the teachings of Islam.

Reserves policy

Trustees’ policy is to hold enough funds to meet operating costs of the Mosque.

Principal funding sources

The charity's main source of income is donations given by people. Funds given at a Friday prayers (Jumma prayer) is the large part of the collection.
