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.

Filing observations & context
1 indicativeSpecific datapoints from Dawat E Islami Inc's most recent IRS Form 990 that warrant a closer look. Each item is computed directly from the org's own public filing — we explain what the datapoint is, what it might mean, and the legitimate reasons it could be present. Read these as context, not conclusions.
- Elevated reserves relative to annual expensesindicative
Net assets equal 54.1 months of operating expenses (>18mo threshold).
What this meansNet assets at year-end equal more than 18 months of operating expenses (i.e. the org could run its current programs for over a year and a half without any new revenue).
Why it matters (and what it might not mean)Many nonprofits — particularly endowments, scholarship funds, and orgs with donor-restricted balances — legitimately hold reserves above 18 months. The flag isn't an accusation; it's a prompt to read the org's reserves policy, which should be public for any org sitting on this much liquidity.

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 $99KForm 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.
- Compensation & benefits$31K · 31.1%
Form 990 Part IX lines 5–10 — total staff compensation: salaries & wages, payroll taxes, and benefits across everyone the org pays (program, clinical, and support staff), plus any pay to officers, directors, and key employees. The per-person split — including which officers, if any, are paid — is in the Compensation history section below. For orgs running clinics, schools, or in-house programs, most of this is program work, not admin.
- Program & operations (other)$68K · 68.9%
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
Dawat E Islami Inc reports $133K 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 2023
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.
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.
Net assets are 4.3× annual revenue
4.3×Context$578K of net assets against $134K of FY 2023 revenue.
ContextFoundations, endowments, and grant-makers (AMCF, Pillars Fund, etc.) intentionally hold multi-year reserves so they can grant strategically over time. A 5–20× ratio is normal for an endowment-shaped balance sheet. Read this in the context of the org's mission — operating charity vs. foundation — not as a default red flag.
Source: Net assets (Form 990 Part X line 33) ÷ revenue (Part I line 12)
Extended-reserve position: 70 months of expenses
70 moContextNet assets of $578K ÷ monthly expenses of $8K = 70 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% returnContextNet assets of $578K 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.
