The IRS Form 990 for FY 2021 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 2021 should begin appearing here around mid-to-late 2022. A gap between today and the latest filing does not mean the org hasn't filed.

Where the money went · FY 2020
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 2020
Total $26KForm 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.
- Program & operations (other)$26K · 100.0%
Total expenses minus compensation and fundraising, the residual covering program supplies, occupancy & utilities, professional fees, beneficiary services, medical supplies (for clinics), travel, equipment, and depreciation. 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
Dar Al Hijrah 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.
Year-over-year trends · through FY 2020
Arrow color = direction × good-when-upPer-metric direction and magnitude vs. the prior fiscal year. Where the data goes back far enough, the 3-year compound annual growth rate is included, useful for separating one-off spikes from sustained trends.

Net assets ÷ (annual expenses ÷ 12). The trend matters more than the absolute number: a falling reserve year-over-year is the early warning sign of fragility, even if it's still above the 3-month floor.
Items worth a closer look
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.
Thin operating reserve
0.0 moNotableMonths of reserve in FY 2020: 0.0. Best-practice nonprofit governance treats 3 months as the lower bound, 6–12 months as a healthy range.
ContextThin reserves make orgs fragile to a single bad fundraising year. Pass-through grant-makers and acute-relief orgs sometimes run this tight by design.
Source: Net assets ÷ (total expenses ÷ 12)
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.

Areas where engagement could help, ethical supplier stack
2 flags detectedWe detected 2 vendors on Dar Al Hijrah's public website that appear on widely-followed Muslim-community watch lists (BDS, Project Nimbus contractors, documented content-suppression, or Uyghur-surveillance context). Per the §I “transparency over imposition” principle, we publish the facts and the cited basis, we do not adjudicate which boycotts are religiously obligatory. Each donor decides.
- Stripepayment-processor
Stripe Inc. — co-founder Patrick Collison has made publicly documented donations and statements supporting positions adverse to Muslim humanitarian causes at material scale. Appears on community boycott discussions. Verify current status before publishing org-level findings.

Most orgs we scan don’t know which of their analytics or payment vendors appear on community watch lists, they inherited the choice from a template or an ads-manager setup. Alternatives exist for every flagged vendor (Helcim/Stax for payment, Plausible/Fathom for analytics, self-hosted PostHog for session replay).
The Ihsan Standard Supplier-Stack Audit goes further than the public-website scan above. We inventory the full vendor stack, payment processors, hosting, CRM, accounting, ad-tech, the back-office tools that don’t show up in HTML, identify ethical alternatives for each, and build a realistic transition timeline staffed against the org’s actual calendar. The audit output is a vendor-by-vendor switch plan, not a shame-list.
Paired with the Khulafāʾ al-Arḍ Stewardship Audit (environmental footprint of sites and vendors, in partnership with the Art and Wilderness Institute’s Green Masjid Initiative), this is the engagement-track ladder we offer every org. See the Attestations & Audits section above for the full set.
Method: automatic vendor detection from public website data. Watch-list basis is the documented public reason each vendor appears on community lists (BDS, Don’t Buy Into Occupation, U.S. Dept. of Commerce Entity List, etc.), not Ihsan Standard’s own editorial judgment. See the ethical-supplier rubric for the full methodology.
Compensation history
No officer-compensation data on file for this org, neither the per-officer roster (Form 990 Part VII Section A) nor the aggregate line (Part IX line 5) has been indexed by ProPublica.
