The charity has objects to further training and education in the Islamic faith. It was initially identified for monitoring over allegations the charity was distributing literature from its premises promoting hatred towards a Muslim sect, the Ahmadi community, which were made during a television programme and which the charity has denied.

The charity’s income for the financial year ending 31 August 2015 was £41,306, while spending is recorded as £27,193.

Visits in May and July 2016 by the commission identified serious regulatory concerns regarding how the charity is being managed including indications of poor governance, risks to charity property due to poor financial management and the trustees carrying out activities outside of the charity’s stated objects.

The commission’s inquiry will now examine the administration, governance and management of the charity by the trustees; the conduct of the trustees and whether or not the trustees have complied with and fulfilled their duties and responsibilities as trustees under charity law; and the charity’s financial controls and management.

Once the inquiry is complete, the commission will publish a report of its findings and outcome.
