Eid Prayer Facilities & Logistics: Comprehensive Planning
This criterion assesses the comprehensiveness, safety, and spiritual quality of the organization's planning and execution for Eid prayer facilities. It evaluates the extent to which the organization proactively anticipates needs, mitigates risks, and creates a safe, accessible, and dignified environment for all attendees. Key elements include trustee-level governance, safeguarding, protective security (CT/HVM), medical provision aligned with industry standards (e.g., The Purple Guide), and equitable facilities for women and families. It requires strict adherence to legal obligations regarding traffic management, waste duty of care, and data protection. The criterion emphasizes the Islamic principles of removing hardship (Raf‘ al-Haraj), consultation (Shura), and neighborly rights, ensuring the event reflects the spirit of Eid through seamless organization and continuous improvement.
| Metric | Eid Event Performance Index |
|---|---|
| Target | Satisfaction ≥4/5; 0 Reportable Incidents |
| Frequency | Per Event |
| Method | Composite score of satisfaction, safety incidents, and compliance checks. |
| Unit | Score/Count |
Level 1: Initial/Ad-hoc
Initial: Ad-hoc planning. No formal risk assessment, insurance, or documented emergency procedures. Reliance on untrained volunteers for critical safety tasks. Significant complaints or safety gaps.
Level 2: Developing
Managed: Basic documentation exists (site map, simple timeline). Some risk mitigation (e.g., first aid kit, some stewards) but lacks formal ratios or specific plans for CT/Safeguarding. Women's area or accessibility may be suboptimal.
Level 3: Established
Defined: Documented Event Safety Pack approved by Trustees. Includes full Risk Assessment, trained stewards (ratio met), basic Access Plan, valid insurance/permits, and equitable women's provision. Execution is smooth with minor issues.
Level 4: Advanced
Proactive: All Level 3 requirements met, plus engagement with Safety Advisory Group (SAG), full medical plan (Purple Guide compliant), pre-event tabletop exercise conducted, and proactive neighbor engagement. Feedback is systematically analyzed.
Level 5: Optimizing
Optimizing: All Level 4 requirements met, plus stress-tested contingency plans (drills conducted), innovation in sustainability/tech, and a closed-loop improvement process where previous lessons are proven to be implemented. The event serves as a sector model.
Organisation Types
By Organisation Size
| Size | Applicability | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Micro | partial | Basic risk assessment applies, but formal event safety packs, crowd surge planning, and traffic management are disproportionate for small volunteer-run gatherings. |
| Small | partial | Requires scaled-down risk assessments and basic crowd control; formal traffic management (NHSS 12D) and complex hazard logs are usually disproportionate unless hosting a large outdoor event. |
| Medium | full | |
| Large | full | |
| Major | full |
