Masjid context

Most US masjids are not required to file Form 990

Sheikh Abdul Kadir Idriss Mosque Trustmay qualify under the IRS “church exemption” that relieves houses of worship from the public Form 990 filing requirement. That makes the ProPublica financial timeline here sparse by design, it is not a transparency failure. The trade-off is that masjids generally have less public transparency than 501(c)(3)s that do file 990s, so our framing for masjid pages is different:

  • 1.Independent audit is the single most important signal.Donation boxes, cash collections, and weekly khutbah envelopes mean money flows that benefit from a third-party audit. We treat a recent audit as the “Gold-tier” signal for masjids, see the Attestations & Audits section below.
  • 2.Ethical supplier stack still applies.Even without 990 filings, the masjid’s public website routes through analytics, payment, and hosting vendors, same lens we apply to every org.
  • 3.Best-practice gaps are coachable, not punitive.Most masjids don’t have access to the CRMs, accounting software, and donor-management tooling that larger 501(c)(3)s use. The Ihsan Standard engagement track is built for exactly this, a cleanup and capacity path, not a gotcha publication.
Most recent filing on fileFY 2023

The IRS Form 990 for FY 2024 is due ~Nov 15 of the year after the fiscal close, followed by 3–6 months of IRS processing and 6–12 months before the cleaned data is published. FY 2024 should begin appearing here around mid-to-late 2025. A gap between today and the latest filing does not mean the org hasn't filed.

Where the money went · FY 2023

Form 990 Part IX (Statement of Functional Expenses) split into the four functional buckets, plus automated anomaly detection across the most-asked donor questions.

Expense breakdown · FY 2023

Total $8K

Form 990 Part IX line items we have on file for this filing (compensation totals + fundraising lines). The full functional-expense col-A/B/C/D split (grants, program, admin, fundraising) was not in the structured extract, the residual sits in “Program & operations” below. Reading note: compensation is NOT the same as “admin overhead” , for orgs running clinics (like IMAN’s FQHC), schools, or in-house programs, most of compensation is program work.

ProPublica's structured extract did not include the Part IX functional split for this filing year; the breakdown PDF reconciles which specific lines went where.

Fundraising efficacy · not the primary lens for this org

Sheikh Abdul Kadir Idriss Mosque Trust reports $0 in contributions on only $0 of fundraising spend , a ratio that suggests this org isn't fundraising-driven in the conventional sense. The Form 990 “fundraising expense” line item is meant to capture solicitation costs (telemarketing, direct mail, digital ad spend); for universities, masjids, foundations, and orgs primarily supported by major gifts or program revenue, that line is small or zero, and the resulting “ratio” reads as meaningless.

The right operational-efficiency lens for an org like this is reserves, payroll composition, and program-expense ratio, see the financial-anomalies section and the multi-year trend dashboard.

Financial context · plain math

Automated checks across Form 990 Part IX and Part VII Section B. We publish the math and the source; we do not adjudicate intent. Many of these have legitimate explanations specific to the org’s mission, read each card’s context note before forming a judgment. The org has full right of reply.

2 context-only
  • Extended-reserve position: 1058 months of expenses

    1058 moContext

    Net assets of $688K ÷ monthly expenses of $650.4166666666666 = 1058 months of runway.

    ContextSome orgs operate deliberately as educational endowments or grant-making foundations where a multi-year reserve is the target, not a warning. The §A6.5 caveat applies: this figure does not distinguish restricted from unrestricted net assets, so it is an upper bound on truly discretionary months.

    Source: Net assets ÷ (expenses ÷ 12)

  • High reserves with low investment income (potential idle capital)

    0.00% returnContext

    Net assets of $688K produced only $0 of investment income in FY 2023, under 0.5% return on the reserve.

    ContextAn endowment-shaped balance sheet whose capital isn't earning is worth a question, but a grant-making foundation that pays out reserves on a 2–3 year cadence may rationally hold cash for upcoming commitments instead of locking it in invested capital. Read this alongside the org's grant cadence.

    Source: Investment income (Part VIII line 4) ÷ revenue

Engagement-track path:if a specific explanation fits the org (new-org ramp, capital campaign, FQHC medical-staff payroll, multi-year grant schedule), the org can sign in, attach the supporting filing detail, and a contextual note will publish alongside the relevant card. The numbers stay — the reader gets the reasoning.

scan pending

We have not yet run the public-website vendor scan for Sheikh Abdul Kadir Idriss Mosque Trust. A blank section here is not evidence of a clean supplier stack, it means we don’t have data yet.

Coverage as of today: ~6 / 1,917 cohort orgs scanned. The Ihsan Standard rendered-site scanner is being rolled out across the cohort; the Supplier-Stack Audit (engagement track) covers vendors that don’t appear in public HTML at all (CRM, accounting, ad-tech back-office).

Ask the board of Sheikh Abdul Kadir Idriss Mosque Trust for an Ihsan audit

The masjid is an amānah, a trust the board holds for the whole community. The Ihsan Standard audit is an independent review of the masjid’s finances as a whole, its governance and adherence to its bylaws, and its property records, carried out under a mutual NDA. A short, kind request from members is often what gets it on the board’s agenda.

Subject
Sheikh Abdul Kadir Idriss Mosque Trust: would the board consider an Ihsan Standard audit?
Salaam alaikum, I hope this finds you well. I wanted to raise something I think a lot of us in the community would support. Would the board be open to an Ihsan Standard audit? From what I understand it's a full review: the masjid's accounts and donation flows, zakat handling, board structure and adherence to the bylaws, and the deed and tax records. It's confidential (they sign a mutual NDA) and the first conversation and scoping are free. "Allah commands you to render trusts to whom they are due" (4:58). I think an independent audit would strengthen the trust people already place in the board, and make it easier for everyone to give generously. https://ihsanstandard.org/audit With thanks and duas,
