FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30TH SEPTEMBER 2023


A message from the Chairman Mufti Abdul Wahab

I trust that you are all in good health. Our recent change from Ummah Charity International to Al-Wahab Foundation was a creative decision to revitalise and strengthen our identity to leave a lasting impression. After much deliberation and thought, it was decided that we will change the name of our charity to improve our organisation further. I would like to emphasise that this rebrand has not changed the heart of our mission and with your support, we will continue to work towards our objectives.

Rest assured that you can rely on our commitment to serving humanity as we remain dedicated and resolute to the same causes you entrusted us with. By transitioning the name to Al-Wahab Foundation, we aim to establish a unique identity to supporters like you.

Our endeavour to alleviate suffering and empower those who are marginalised through implementing sustainable development initiatives is guided by our vision of a world where every person has access to necessities; we strive to make a meaningful impact in the lives of those we serve. With the utmost gratitude to Allah (SWT), AWF is a transformative and flourishing organisation. We have made remarkable strides in assisting those who require aid. Our capacity to address crises has significantly improved in effectiveness with the initiative aimed at fostering long-lasting change.

The year 2023 has brought various challenges for people worldwide, with the cost-of-living crisis further exacerbating existing issues such as inflation and unemployment. Despite these adversities, Al-Wahab Foundation has continued its efforts to serve humanity. Through the work of our incredible team and the generous contributions of our supporters, AWF reached new heights throughout the year by transforming lives through Rozgar, Women Empowerment Projects, and feeding those in need. It is my honour to lead this organisation in presenting our annual report. With your continued support, AWF will continue in its objective to work towards a future liberated from poverty and affliction. We envision that AWF's growth will continue and hope to extend our reach to new regions across the globe.

JazakAllah Khair.

Stories of hope

Iftar Packs for Kaleem's Family: Ramadan 2023
I have been working as a labourer for many years now. The income in this field is uncertain, leading to instability for most workers' families. During Ramadan, when we aim to concentrate on fasting, our focus shifts to arranging meals for the kids due to the unpredictability of our earnings. These fluctuations are a part of our life. I want to express my gratitude to Mufti Abdul Wahab, Al-Wahab Foundation, and everyone who contributed to this noble cause. Your generosity has allowed us to have a peaceful Ramadan without concerns about iftar meals. Allah has been kind, and it is your benevolence that has enabled my family to observe fasts comfortably this Ramadan.

AWF Rozgar Project: Roshmail's Gratitude for Rickshaw
My name is Roshmail, and I reside in Sindh with my family. Our lives have been challenging due to the lack of stable employment. Providing for my children and meeting their needs has become a difficult task. I longed for a sustainable source of income to ensure a better life for my family, but the circumstances made it difficult to find opportunities. I am deeply thankful to Al-Wahab Foundation and Mufti Abdul Wahab for providing me with this rickshaw. I can now earn a sustainable income to support my loved ones. May Allah (SWT) bless Mufti Abdul Wahab and the dedicated team of Al-Wahab Foundation for their kindness and support during our time of need.

Restoring Lives in Turkiye: Azra's Warm Gratitude
My name is Azra, and I reside in Hatay with my family. Our lives were turned upside down by the natural disasters that struck our city. We lost our home, our belongings, and our means of income. Providing for my children became an overwhelming challenge, as we struggled to find food, clean water, and other necessities. It was a time of immense uncertainty and fear for our future. We are deeply grateful to the Al-Wahab Foundation and Mufti Abdul Wahab for their understanding and support during this difficult time. The Emergency Relief Package they provided has been a true blessing for my family. It gave us access to essential food, clean water, and hygiene supplies that were hard to come by after the disaster. I am thankful to Almighty Allah that we still have got kind people like Mufti Abdul Wahab and the dedicated team of Al-Wahab Foundation to help suffering families in bringing ease to them.

Taza Khan's Warm Thanks to AWF For Eye Surgery
My name is Taza Khan. I live in Vehari Colony and we are 20 family members. I have been facing trouble with my eyesight for a long but couldn't afford to get it checked. Al-Wahab Foundation organised a free eye camp in our area. It was the best opportunity for me as we could hardly make ends meet for the family. So, I got myself checked after examination, the doctor referred me for eye cataract surgery. I am thankful to Al-Wahab Foundation and Mufti Abdul Wahab for serving us all with free of cost treatment. May Allah bless them.

Mehwish Ali Warmly Expresses Gratitude for AWF Eid Gift Pack
My name is Mehwish Ali. My father, being a butcher, is the sole provider for our family of 11 members. It's challenging for him to meet our family's needs. During Eid, my siblings and I always hope for new clothes to celebrate the occasion. I want to extend my thanks to Mufti Abdul Wahab and Al-Wahab Foundation for providing us with these Eid Gift Packs and making our Eid truly special.

Amina Expresses Deep Gratitude for Winter Kit
My name is Amina. We are residents of Sarjani Town, Babu Bhotani Goth. I am a mother of 9 children. My husband works, but the income is insufficient to meet our needs. It is really hard to survive through challenging phase of winter season here as we cannot afford basic necessities. I am thankful to Al-Wahab Foundation that their team visited our area and helped our people. Otherwise, there is no organization for poor people to visit our area and help us. I am deeply grateful to Mufti Abdul Wahab and Al-Wahab Foundation. May Allah give them a great reward. Ameen.

Emergency relief action: A year in review

In the face of adversity, the Al-Wahab Foundation stands as a beacon of hope, providing swift and effective emergency relief to those affected by disasters and conflicts worldwide. Our emergency relief efforts aim to alleviate immediate suffering, restore dignity and foster resilience amongst those affected.
Throughout the past year, Al-Wahab Foundation has been at the forefront of humanitarian response, delivering life-saving aid to vulnerable populations across the globe. Al-Wahab Foundation continues to make a tangible difference in the lives of countless individuals, offering vital assistance when needed most.

Earthquake Appeal - Turkiye
In early February 2023, the world bore witness to utter devastation as a series of major earthquakes struck Türkiye near the border with Syria. Tragically, over 51,000 people have lost their lives, trapped beneath collapsed buildings in what has been characterised as the worst natural disaster in decades.
With your support, we provided vital food packs and cooked meals to those who lost everything.
Your generosity has brought hope and sustenance to those grappling with such immense challenges. Your speedy response allowed us to deliver 366 food packs, 1,000 cooked meals, 200 Iftar meals, and cash vouchers of £1,250 to 4,596 beneficiaries to help assist those affected by the crises in Turkey. These packs contained rice, cooking oil, bulgar rice, soup, sugar, pasta, tomato paste, salt, tea, flour etc.

Earthquake Appeal - Morocco
On the 8th of September 2023, the magnitude 6.8 earthquake hit Morocco causing mass deaths in mountain villages that have collapsed in on themselves. A magnitude 4.9 aftershock hit 19 minutes later. According to official figures, the death toll stands at nearly 3,000 people and more than 5,600 reported injured. (Source: AlJazeera)
The aftermath of the earthquake has resulted in a shocking 500,000 people being internally displaced, living in constant fear of devastation, particularly as the threat of landslides looms large in the aftermath of the earthquake. Your generous donations have helped AWF distribute 480 food packs to 2,880 beneficiaries, which have been instrumental in assisting those who require them. These packs consisted of Wheat, Oil, Milk, Honey, Juice, Sugar, Lentils, and more.

Water For Life

At Al-Wahab Foundation, we recognise the critical importance of water in sustaining life and promoting health and well-being. Hence, we are committed to implementing projects that provide clean water to those communities in need. Access to clean water is not merely a matter of convenience; it is a matter of survival. Contaminated water sources and lack of access to water can spread diseases and lead to illness, particularly among the vulnerable, such as the elderly and children. By providing clean water, we hope to prevent waterborne diseases and improve overall quality of life.

Pakistan Water Crisis
In the aftermath of recent floods, access to clean water remains a pressing issue in many parts of Pakistan. With an increasing population and pervasive poverty, Pakistan faces a profound water crisis. At Al-Wahab Foundation, our foremost priority is to ensure that marginalised communities have access to clean drinking water, safeguarding and preserving lives. Through our 'Water for Life' project, we have addressed the immediate needs of communities lacking access to clean water and the underlying factors contributing to water contamination. This includes the implantation of sustainable and systematically maintained water pumps and the construction of vital water wells in both households and communities. With your donations, we have been able to benefit around 9,250 people by building 37 water wells in Mirpur and District Ghotki. Additionally, we were able to supply 600 water pumps across various regions in Pakistan, like Kalhora, Deharki, and Khipro facilitating 15,000 beneficiaries. The water wells have ensured that entire villages can access clean water whilst also ensuring that families on the outskirts can benefit from the convenience of hand pumps. Our implementation process is meticulously conducted, involving thorough research and community engagement to identify the most vulnerable people and appropriate installation locations.

Report of the Trustees
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30TH SEPTEMBER 2023

Uganda Water Crisis
Africa is grappling with a dire water crisis, which has resulted in vast parts of its population without access to clean and safe water. This scarcity has heightened the vulnerability of communities to waterborne diseases, particularly women and children. In response to this issue, particularly in poverty-stricken areas like Uganda, the Al-Wahab Foundation has launched a water project dedicated to providing sustainable water to those who require it. Your contributions to this new water project for Uganda have had a direct and profound impact on alleviating water crises and enhancing individuals' lives. We have been able to implement crucial water initiatives like installing water wells. Overall, your donations have enabled the Al-Wahab Foundation to help 1,400 people by installing 2 water wells through this initiative. This project has not only saved lives but also created opportunities for communities to thrive.

Empowering Communities Through Masjid Construction

Masjid is at the heart of any Muslim community as it creates a sacred space where individuals can come together, pray, learn, and find solace. These instill Islamic values and foster a closer connection with the Almighty. In some rural areas, masjids often suffer severe damage from natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods. The idea of restoring these sacred spaces is sometimes an unattainable goal. Amidst the daily struggle for survival, finding the necessary funds and resources for building Masjids can be a daunting challenge, to say the least. Understanding this need, the Al-Wahab Foundation aims to bridge the gap by working in villages where Masjids have been completely demolished and reshaping the religious identities of individuals in these areas.

With the generous support of our donors and the dedication of our team at Al-Wahab Foundation, we have made significant strides towards the construction of Masjids. Throughout the year, our efforts have been geared towards fundraising, planning, sourcing high-quality material, and executing the building of new Masjids. We have also worked to make the process as collaborative as possible by cooperating closely with local communities to identify suitable locations and ensure that the Masjid meets the needs and requirements of the people it will serve.

From 2022-2023, we have built 19 masjids over the year in Pakistan, benefitting around 3,960 locals and 1 masjid in Uganda to facilitate 600 beneficiaries who now have access to a suitable prayer place. As we look ahead, we remain committed to further expanding the Build a Masjid project.

Our Eye Care Initiatives -

Restoring Vision, Renewing Hope!

Few gifts are as transformative and life-changing as the restoration of sight. According to the 'Third National Survey of Blindness - 2019 to 2021', as reported by Dawn News, Visual impairment affects 9,028,073 people in Pakistan, disconnecting them from the world. The problem is further exacerbated when such areas have limited access to hospitals and eye clinics, making them particularly vulnerable to such issues.
We believe that no person should endure preventable blindness due to poverty. In Pakistan, this issue is particularly acute since cataracts and refracted errors are the primary causes of blindness, afflicting thousands within the impoverished communities. Through our Eye Care programme, we strive to provide communities with essential access to treatment and education on preventing visual impairments and blindness. We cater to children and older people, hoping to offer sight-saving medical care.

Eye Cataract Surgeries

With cataracts being the world's foremost cause of vision impairment, affecting billions of people all over the world, the absence of healthcare due to the inability to afford treatments often leads to untreated blindness. Our surgeries are conducted in those areas where the most vulnerable individuals can receive treatment and care.
For those requiring eye cataract surgery, the Al-Wahab Foundation offers free-of-cost operations, serving as an organisation committed to preventing blindness. Your support has made a massive difference since we have completed 200 eye cataract surgeries. Alongside this, to ensure that those undergoing surgery have a stress-free journey, your donations to Al-Wahab Foundation cover essential expenses such as transportation, food, specialised surgical equipment, hygiene provisions and post-operative care, ensuring the restoration of eye health.
Your donations have been crucial in our global fight against preventative blindness. They offer hope to those struggling in poverty and transform lives through our eye appeal.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30TH SEPTEMBER 2023

Eye Camps

Al-Wahab Foundation's eye camps offer free eye consultations and treatment to those in need. We use experienced and qualified doctors who examine patients, provide accurate diagnoses and prescribe necessary medications and glasses free of charge. By combining medical intervention with educational outreach, Al-Wahab Foundation aims to empower these communities to safeguard their vision and lead healthier lives by re-engaging with employment and daily activities. From October 2022 to September 2023, the Al-Wahab Foundation treated 7,433 people at 28 Eye Camps set up in Surjani Town, Organi Town, and Karnal Colony. In conducting these camps, we provided check-ups, prescribed medicines, and made referrals to hospitals where necessary if Cataract surgery was required.

Our Commitment to Maktab Support:

Pathways to Knowledge

More than 280 million children worldwide are denied access to the most basic rights, namely Education. Typically, these children are forced into a life of manual labour and perpetuate a cycle of generational poverty. At the core of Al-Wahab Foundation's goals is finding accurate and sustainable solutions to poverty. One way in which we aim to do this is by facilitating access to Education for the disadvantaged who may lack Education due to financial constraints. The 'Support a Maktab' initiative offers Islamic Education to those children in need to provide them with the transformative learning and teaching they need to forge brighter futures. Our Maktabs offer a diverse curriculum encompassing secular and Islamic subjects, including English, Maths, Hadith, Hifz, and Tajweed. Under the guidance of qualified Qaris, these children can receive a holistic education that equips them with the knowledge and necessary skills to thrive academically and pursue aspirational employment opportunities in the future. As it currently stands, our Maktabs in Burmi Colony have 300 students. The initiative is firmly rooted in our Islamic values, recognising the purpose of Education as a means of social betterment. We must ensure that comprehensive Education is accessible to all. As a result, your donations have allowed us to play a part in breaking the chains of poverty and investing in the future of children by providing consistent and quality Education and also cooked meals on a regular basis. Our Maktabs have allowed children to be nurtured in a faith-led educational environment that stays with them as they grow.

Providing Wheelchairs For Mobility

Al-Wahab Foundation is dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for individuals who face mobility challenges. Our firm commitment to inclusivity, has inspired us to launch the Mobility through wheelchairs initiative. Our goal is simple yet reflective: to provide individuals with the means to move freely and independently, thus fostering their integration into society and the pursuit of their dreams.

Thanks to the generous contributions from supporters like you, we have been able to make a tangible impact on the ground. To date, we have successfully distributed 50 wheelchairs in Bannu, KPK, 25 in Khuzdar, Balochistan, and 25 in Rajanpur, Punjab to those in need across the suburbs of Pakistan. Each wheelchair represents not only a mode of transportation, but a symbol of hope and opportunity for those who may have felt marginalized or limited by their mobility issues.

However, we do not want our work to stop here. We are fully committed to expanding this initiative, reaching even more individuals who require assistance. By continuing to mobilize resources and support, we aim to make a lasting difference in the lives of those facing mobility challenges. Hence, your ongoing support will be crucial in driving our mission forward. Together, we can work to break down barriers, empower individuals, and build a world where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.

Delivering Food Packs and Cooked Meals -

From Hunger to Hope

Food Packs

According to the National Nutrition Survey, 2018, as reported by the World Food Program, 36.9 percent of Pakistan's population grapples with food insecurity. The issue becomes particularly acute due to extreme poverty, unemployment, and rising inflation. Countless families face uncertainty about their next meal and depend on aid to survive. Hunger and poverty are closely intertwined. By tackling hunger issues, we hope that the Feed the Hungry project contributes to helping families break free from the cycle of deprivation. One food pack can support a family for an entire month, giving them essential supplies to prepare nourishing meals. The food packs include Rice, Flour, Sugar, Lentils, and Powdered milk. Al-Wahab Foundation's Feed the Hungry programme aims to assist communities across Pakistan by providing them with much-needed food assistance. Donations to the programme have allowed us to help 11,200 people by providing families with 1,120 food packs in both Hakeem Baksh Village in Dadu and Karachi.

Food insecurity in Uganda remains alarmingly high, with recent surveys indicating levels as high as 48 and 11 percent, according to the World Bank's August 2022 report. Recognizing the severity of this crisis, Al-Wahab Foundation is actively addressing the issue by providing food packs to those in need. With the generous support of our esteemed donors, we distributed 300 food packs to 1,500 beneficiaries in Uganda in 2023. We are committed to further enhancing our efforts to reach even more individuals in need in the near future.

Cooked Meals

As mentioned, food insecurity in areas like Pakistan and Uganda has worsened due to natural disasters and has impacted food supply chains. More than 3 million children are forced into the depths of chronic hunger. Amidst this crisis, families who are suffering from malnourishment find themselves unable to afford a simple hot meal. This project has allowed the Al-Wahab Foundation to provide cooked food to needy people, offering them vital nourishment. Our cooked meal initiative specifically targets the most vulnerable families in remote areas where accessing essential services is challenging. By providing ready-to-eat food to these individuals, we address their urgent need for sustenance. Our team works diligently to identify those areas facing greater risk, with a particular focus on orphans and widows. Your donations have allowed the Al-Wahab Foundation to ensure that those needing food receive regular nutritious meals. From October 2022 to September 2023, we were able to provide 8,950 people through distribution of 167 pots in areas such as the Burmi Colony, Sultanabad, and Yaro Goth in Pakistan and 650 cooked meals as a source of nourishment to 750 beneficiaries in Uganda in 2023. In addition, we provided clean drinking water benefitting 500 people.

Ramadan 2023 -

Nourishment for Pakistan, Uganda, and Turkey

Al-Wahab Foundation is dedicated to ensuring that the less fortunate can observe Ramadan like we do. We recognise the importance of Ramadan and the religious journey that comes with it. However, it is also important to remember those struggling may need more means to afford basic Suhoor and Iftar meals during this sacred month. Al-Wahab Foundation's Ramadan Project aims to tackle the burden facing many Muslims by using donations and Zakat to help fund the project.

Ramadan Food Packs

Due to the cost of living and the destruction of houses from natural disasters, it becomes difficult for people to observe fasting with insufficient food on their plates, meaning many may omit this obligation. Your donations towards providing food packs during Ramadan have made a significant difference to those in need, making fasting much easier.

The food packs include all necessities, which should adequately serve a family of 6 for the entire month. From October 2022 to September 2023, we have distributed 720 food packs which have helped around 7,200 during Ramadan in Pakistan, 200 in Turkiye served 1,200 beneficiaries, and 200 in facilitated 1,000 people in Uganda. Our Ramadan food packs included Flour, Lentils, Sugar, Tea, Oil/Ghee, Rice, Pasta, Cereal, Dates, Vermicelli, Salt, Spices, and more.

Iftar Distribution

Al-Wahab Foundation also organises daily Iftar gatherings throughout Ramadan to ensure that people away from their homes or struggling have a meal to break their fast. In Ramadan 2023, the Al-Wahab Foundation provided 1,515 Iftar Packs in Pakistan, 200 in Turkiye, and 200 in Uganda. Each Iftar Pack is assembled to include various items such as dates, fruit, sandwiches, biryani, water, juice and also some fried treats like samosas and pakoras. We are committed to ensuring that these packages are culturally fitting and suitable for various dietary requirements to meet the needs of those fasting.

Eid Gifts, Fidya & Fitrana

Al-Wahab Foundation has also arranged for Eid Gifts to be distributed to 192 children during Ramadan 2023. The purpose of this project is to bridge the gap between those in the same community and reduce a sense of deprivation. We strongly believe that all children, regardless of background, should be able to celebrate the holy day of Eid in harmony with those around them. The gift packs include dresses and bangles for girls and new clothes and shoes for the boys. Alongside these efforts, your donations have meant that we have disbursed 285 Fidya donations to 2,850 beneficiaries and 1,820 Fitrana donations, which have been extremely useful for certain communities during Ramadan. With your continued support and donations, the Al-Wahab Foundation has improved and expanded its Ramadan efforts. We will continue to strive to develop our initiatives and positively impact the lives of those in need.

Grand Eid Fair Gala 2023

The Grand Eid Fair Gala 2023 was held at Horsenden Hill Activity Centre in Greenford on the 23rd of April. This event was based on promoting the message of positivity and coming together for noble causes while encouraging greater involvement from donors in serving humanity. The Grand Eid Fair Gala provided a vibrant and inclusive space for individuals from diverse backgrounds to come together and celebrate Eid festivities in a meaningful way. With various activities and stalls around, the event offered something for everyone, ensuring an enjoyable experience for all attendees. This event provided a platform to showcase the impactful work of the Al-Wahab Foundation in various areas that help transform lives for those in need. The attendees had the opportunity to engage with AWF representatives and learn more about the projects AWF has been working on continuously for years to bring betterment to life. Chairman AWF, Mufti Abdul Wahab, along with his family, was present on the stall to meet everyone, demonstrating the commitment towards helping humanity. A dedicated team of AWF staff and volunteers responsibly carried out their assigned duties, contributing to the overall success of the event.

Volunteers Appreciation -

Thanks for Being with Us Throughout!

As a part of our Annual Report for October 2022 to September 2023, we would like to take this opportunity to extend our deepest gratitude to the exceptional and hardworking individuals who have generously volunteered their time with us and provided their sincere efforts to support our various initiatives. Our volunteers have played a significant part in managing our Eid Fair Gala which happened to be a huge success. Their commitment to serving humanity has played a vital role in the successful implementation of our programs, from providing food packs and Iftar packs to the distribution of winter kits. In addition to this, they have consistently been available to assist in packaging the items for distribution to the beneficiaries. Through our volunteers dedication, compassion, and tireless efforts, they have served towards a positive change in uplifting countless lives and strengthening the community.

Qurbani 2023: Delivering Meat to the Less Fortunate

During Eid Al-Adha, Muslims participate in the act of Qurbani, following the footsteps of Prophet Ibrahim (AS) as a demonstration of faith and obedience to Allah (SWT). The days of Qurbani, falling on the 10th, 11th and 12th of Dhul Hijjah, allow us to fulfil our Qurbani obligations and extend compassion to those in need. At Al-Wahab Foundation, we buy livestock and transport them to impoverished areas, ensuring that the most vulnerable receive the benefits of Qurbani. Your donations to the Qurbani Project have allowed the Al-Wahab Foundation to reach 26,656 beneficiaries during this year. It includes meat from 178 Lambs, 14 Camels, 28 Cows, and 76 Goats. Our team meticulously select the sacrificial animals to ensure they meet Shariah guidelines for health and sustainability. On the day of Eid Al-Adha, we also oversee the sacrificial process to adhere to Islamic principles. The meat from these Qurbani animals was distributed to Pakistan's locations: Malir, Burma Colony, Malik Goth, Sultanabad and many more.


ALWAHAB FOUNDATION (REGISTERED NUMBER: 13750092)

Report of the Trustees
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30TH SEPTEMBER 2023

Regardless of their financial circumstances, every Muslim deserves to experience Eid Al-Adha to its fullest. Your donations have enabled the Al-Wahab Foundation to provide families with meat to enjoy a hearty meal and celebrate without thinking about hunger during such auspicious times.

Impact of Sadaqah Donations

At Al-Wahab Foundation, we recognise the profound impact of Sadaqah-an act of voluntary charity that embodies the spirit of giving in Islam. Our commitment to promoting such initiatives stems from our core principles of compassion and generosity. Whilst not obligatory like Zakat, Sadaqah still holds huge significance as it provides a means for uplifting communities and creating sustainable change.

Monetary Sadaqah: We provide crucial assistance to families in need through urgent Sadaqah cash funds. Your donations have allowed us to contribute to medical aid, school fees, food packs, livelihood support, clean water, restoration of damaged masjids, and support for Maktab Education. This project serves as a lifeline for those in immediate need of relief and has helped around 8,000 beneficiaries.

Animal Sadaqah Sacrifice: The act of sacrificing an animal for the sake of Allah (SWT) holds deep significance in Islam as it is a practice which symbolises obedience and gratitude, as exemplified by the Prophet (PBUH). Our Qurbani initiative, as mentioned above, the Al-Wahab Foundation, provided opportunities for those less fortunate to fulfil this sacred act of Sadaqah sacrifice by donating towards the purchase and sacrifice of an animal. In the past years, with the help of our donors, the Al-Wahab Foundation was able to facilitate the sacrifice of 7 goats and the meat from these sacrificial animals was distributed to 336 people.

Zakat Contributions: Making a Difference

Zakat, one of the five pillars of Islam, is more than a simple act of charity. It is an obligatory duty upon those with the means to fulfill it. It serves as a powerful mechanism for wealth redistribution, championing the cause of the less fortunate and combating poverty. Your Zakat contribution holds great significance since it provides a lifeline for countless individuals and families in need. Through giving Zakat to Al-Wahab Foundation, your donation provides essential resources such as food, education, and clean water, creating transformative change within communities across Pakistan. Your support fuels a cycle of empowerment and resilience, forging pathways to a brighter, more equitable future for all.

With the support from our kind donors, in 2022 we provided winter kits in Bangladesh reaching 2,100 beneficiaries to deal with winter harshness. These winter kits included all essentials like warm socks, winter caps, blankets, and clothes. This would not have been possible without your Zakat donations which made a lasting impact on those who needed it the most.

Serving Humanity in the UK

Many people in the UK grapple with daily hardships arising from a cost-of-living crisis and unemployment. Amid such challenges, individuals who are living below the poverty threshold are particularly affected. As food costs increase, it becomes much more difficult for people to afford the basic necessity of nourishment. It can often feel like the odds are stacked against you when factors outside your control leave you feeling isolated and hopeless.

As a part of the Serving Humanity project, your contributions have meant that the Al-Wahab Foundation has been able to alleviate some of the burdens that have struck the UK by offering winter survival kits and hot meals to those in need. In collaboration with London Community Kitchen, we distributed cooked food to help alleviate hunger in the local community.

Additionally, the Al-Wahab Foundation is dedicated to addressing food waste and responding to food deprivation in the UK. Through our collaboration with My Yard Charity, we work tirelessly every Tuesday to deliver freshly prepared hot meals to My Yard Charity, where they are then distributed to families and individuals in need across the UK.
This partnership also supplies food and essential packages to those struggling to access an adequate food supply. Altogether, we were able to deliver a total of 3,109 cooked meals and 50 essential bags from 2022-2023. Apart from these regular projects, AWF distributed 50 winter kits collaboratively with Hope for Southall Street Homeless to assist those who are compelled to live on the streets. Al-Wahab Foundation also delivered 300 cooked food boxes through Bilal Masjid Youth Club.

Rozgar Project: Creating Opportunities

To address poverty and economic issues in marginalised communities, people must be provided the chance to secure employment and establish a steady source of income. Through the Rozgar Project, the Al-Wahab Foundation has tackled such issues by not only enhancing the essential skills of those seeking jobs but also providing them with access to financial support needed for success. Your donations have meant that we have been able to offer transportation to people that will help generate income for them and their families. During this year, the Al-Wahab Foundation had the pleasure of providing 24 Auto Rickshaws and 50 motorbikes to the most deserving individuals in Karachi. This sustainable improvement method benefited 592 people in Tasier Town, Larkan, and many more areas.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Empowering Women to Transform Lives

Al-Wahab Foundation has been dedicated to empowering women by distributing and providing them with sewing machines. Our Women Empowerment project allows women to sharpen their stitching skills while gaining confidence in their abilities and offering them an opportunity to attain a stable income for their families. Our team organized sewing machines distribution in the suburban areas of Karachi, including Kalapul, Surjani Town, and many more. This year, with your kind donations, we have been able to provide 225 women with sewing machines, empowering them to pursue independent livelihoods with an effort to transform lives for 1,800 beneficiaries. As with all our initiatives, we ensure that candidates who are selected for sewing machines undergo a thorough screening process and are the most deserving applicants. Living in underdeveloped areas means that these women face particular problems if they venture out of the confines of the home and try to earn a living. By empowering women to become valuable contributors to their households, we hope to lay the groundwork for a brighter future for women.

Winter Project: Providing Warmth & Comfort

The Winter Project of the Al-Wahab Foundation has remained resolute in its commitment to alleviating the hardships faced by vulnerable communities during the coldest months of the year. With a focus on providing essential support and resources, our efforts have yielded significant achievements, making a tangible impact on the lives of those in need.

One of the key highlights of our Winter Project has been our response to natural disasters, particularly earthquakes, which have left communities devastated and struggling to cope with the aftermath. Through timely intervention and the generous support of donors like you, we have been able to provide 200 warm blankets to earthquake survivors in Morocco.

As we reflect on the achievements, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to all our supporters, who have made our Winter Project possible. Together, we have made a meaningful difference in the lives of countless individuals and families, offering hope, warmth, and comfort during the coldest season of the year.

Additionally, our Winter Project has extended its reach to underprivileged communities in the UK and Pakistan, where individuals and families face the harsh realities of winter without adequate resources. Through this initiative, we have helped mitigate the impact of the cold weather by distributing 440 kits in Pakistan serving 880 beneficiaries, and 50 winter kits in the UK, ensuring that no one is left to endure the winter months in hardship.

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30th September 2023. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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).

Board of Trustees

Mufti Abdul Wahab, the Chairman of Ummah Charity International, has been engaged in philanthropic activities for well over a decade now. With a prominent presence as an Islamic religious scholar on both international platforms and social media, he has garnered an ever-expanding following. Throughout his journey, Mufti Abdul Wahab has consistently focused on bringing significant positive change to society. In 2012, he turned his vision into reality with the inauguration of Ummah Charity International (now Al-Wahab Foundation, driven by the goal of creating a more equitable, just society where no one is forced to live in unfavourable conditions. To achieve this vision, he closely monitors the charity's activities and, whenever possible, personally visits relief work sites to ensure the organization's processes are carried out smoothly and transparently. Mufti Abdul Wahab's dedication and hands-on approach have made a remarkable impact in realizing positive transformations within the communities AWF serves.

Aftab Ahmed, a devoted humanitarian and accomplished businessman, has demonstrated his drive and determination in building Euro Mobiles and Laptops into a successful enterprise. Now, he brings the same dedication and passion for serving humanity to Al-Wahab Foundation (formerly known as Ummah Charity International), aiming to create a lasting and positive impact on the world. With his expertise in handling highly sensitive matters, he is an ideal fit as a trustee of AWF, and we eagerly anticipate his valuable contributions. Aftab Ahmed plays an active role in all UK-based projects and is committed to expanding the welfare network in this region. His determination to make a difference is truly commendable and serves as an inspiration to us all.

Faisal Rao's capabilities in accounting have helped tremendously in managing the charity's funds for projects within and outside the UK. By profession, he works as an accountant for a large London-based organization, but his drive for social change motivated him to be a part of AWF's board of trustees. His experience and knowledge in monetary matters have allowed the charity to be able to allocate funds to relevant projects effectively and timely. His work with AWF is as deeply cherished as it is crucial.

Risk Management Policy:

A separate log is maintained to determine the risk factors that can affect the operations of Al-Wahab Foundation, formerly known as Ummah Charity International, and can produce significant hurdles in work. These factors usually come under discussion in trustee meetings and require necessary action. Mainly the risk that can be a potential threat is the financial position of the organisation. It applies both on internal and external levels. On internal, the level of reserves and on external, it is the economic calamity which can affect our donors and funders and can distress them from supporting good causes. Trustees are aware of these potential risks and have already discussed overcoming the threats (if they arise) with possible risks and have agreed to discuss them in every trustee meeting so that a quick response can be discoursed and delivered on time. It is also worth mentioning that despite the financial risks, areas like governance, competition, operations, fundraising, legal compliance, visibility, and information technology are well assessed and discussed in detail. The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes an incorporated charity.

Risk Of Governance:
Al-Wahab Foundation, formerly known as Ummah Charity International needs to ensure that proper governance structures and practices are adopted to reduce the risk of failure and can support the survival and success of the organisation. The board will regularly review the policies and procedures to ensure they meet the governance and operating standards.

Funding:

Al-Wahab Foundation does not have a fixed amount of income. In continuation of work, it will be absolutely dependent on the donations made by the public or other charity organisations. Projects are only initiated when the complete funds are available to cover the cost but an exceptional case where Al-Wahab Foundations has also set aside a portion of reserves to reduce the disruption in the event due to a temporary fall in donations.

Complaints Handling

We have a complaints policy in place, and a complaint can be submitted to us either in person, by telephone, by email, or via our website contact form. Complaints will be dealt with per our policy. We strive to make Al-Wahab Foundation meet high standards and up to the expectations of our donors. All procedures and frameworks are reviewed regularly for improvement purposes.

I.T & Data Storage:

Al-Wahab Foundation is reliant upon electronically stored data. However, the damage to our computer systems will not disrupt any of our humanitarian operations. This is because copies of all our data have been made to keep the information we have secure. Our fundraising teams utilise different approaches, which include the following: Individual donor giving, Challenges, Events, Online giving, Communities fundraising, Live TV appeals, Call centres, Direct mail, and Fundraising activities carried out by our staff or volunteers. We don't use third parties or agencies.

General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR):

ALWAHAB FOUNDATION (REGISTERED NUMBER: 13750092)

Report of the Trustees
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30TH SEPTEMBER 2023


Accountability

Al-Wahab Foundation is working continuously to develop and improve its accountability (a vital part of legitimacy) so that it fully supports our vision and mission and ensures that our work has the greatest impact. We have many policies and instruments in place for this, such as participation, feedback, complaints handling, and reporting. When someone donates towards a particular cause or project, we make sure that we have the team and resources to direct your donation towards the people and communities who need it the most. We take your donations very seriously and make sure that every penny is spent correctly, for that all donated funds are monitored and reviewed by Mufti Abdul Wahab (Founder & Chairman), who ensures that Zakat, Sadaqah, and other funds are spent correctly. After the completion, detailed feedback on the project is sent to our donors. Al-Wahab Foundation believes that if we work together, we can make a difference, and for that, we keep our work transparent among all stakeholders, which includes: the public, donors, volunteers, staff, and regulatory bodies in the countries we operate. A little note on Gift aid: Thanks to our donors who have signed a Gift Aid Declaration, as this is much appreciated.

Public Benefit

The Trustees confirm that they abide by the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit, complying with Section 4 of the Charities Act 2006 to have due regard to public benefit in pursuance of its objectives and activities. The initiatives taken by Al-Wahab Foundation left a deep impact and delivered a sense of well-being & happiness without compromising on people's self-respect. We have been playing an effective role in helping those who are in dire need. AWF has undertaken different projects over the years; some were meant to provide immediate relief, while others were meant to uplift the economic status of families. In either case, our efforts have proven fruitful and helped the beneficiaries in changing their lives and providing them with a chance to uplift their current situation. It is worth mentioning that whatever we have achieved so far is quite encouraging and a source of boosting our morale and spirit to continue the good work for the public's benefit and help.

Financial Review

Income

All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when the charity is legally entitled
to the income, the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy, and there is a certainty of receipt.

Donations

This comprises all incoming resources from donations and gifts collected directly by the charity and income from fundraising events/ appeals during the year. Gift Aid tax recoverable under the Gift Aid Scheme is recognised where there is an entitlement, certainty of receipt, and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability. Where a claim for repayment of income tax has been or will be made, such income is included in the debtors' amount if still not received by the year-end.

Reserves Policy

The beneficiaries of the Al-Wahab Foundation are communities from different backgrounds and cultures, the only thing common among them is "poverty and insufficient resources" most of them receive assistance and support from AWF on a regular basis as their economic conditions do not allow them to fulfill the requirements on their own. AWF's ongoing projects are a big hope for thousands of people, and any delay or obstacle in delivering the projects can awfully affect their lives. Therefore, trustees are in view that a minimum of twelve-month reserve would be necessary to run the programs smoothly and to ensure sustainability. The AWF runs learning, fundraising, capacity building and advocacy activities and programmes supporting communities and individuals. The AWF Reserves Policy is to maintain a sufficient level of reserves to enable normal operating activities to continue over a period of up to six months should a shortage in income occur and to take account of potential risks and emergencies that may arise from time to time. This policy will be reviewed at the Annual Trust meeting each year. The Chairman will
present the Trustee Board with a draft document and supporting materials that enable them to make an informed decision about levels of Reserves and feeds into their approval of the strategy document and annual operating budget.

-give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 30th September 2023 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, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'; and
-have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

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 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 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.

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 Report of the Independent Auditors thereon.

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 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.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
- the information given in the Report of the Trustees for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
- the Report of the Trustees has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of
Alwahab Foundation


Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Report of the Trustees.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 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.

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

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of
Alwahab Foundation


Our 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 a Report of the Independent Auditors 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.

The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

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 charity through discussions with trustees and other management, and from our commercial 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 charity, including the Companies Act 2006, Charity's legislation, taxation legislation and data protection, anti-bribery, employment 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.

We assessed the susceptibility of the charity’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; and

- considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations.

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;

- assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates set out in note 1 were indicative of potential bias; and

- investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions.

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;

- reading the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance;

- enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims; and

- reviewing correspondence with HMRC, relevant regulators including the Health and Safety Executive, and the charity’s legal advisors.


Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of
Alwahab Foundation

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 non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the trustees and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any.

Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.

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 Report of the Independent Auditors.

Use of our report
This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members 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 charitable company and the charitable company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Notes to the Financial Statements
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30TH SEPTEMBER 2023

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, 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)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Expenditure
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, 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 accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using either a straight line or reducing balance method, as indicated below.

Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
Fixtures & Fittings - 15% Straight Line
Computer Equipment - 20% Straight Line

The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are
recognised in profit or loss.

Taxation
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.

Foreign currencies
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the statement of financial position date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result.
