Anak Alam, a Muslim blogger has a small but fascinating description and pictures of a predominantly Chinese Muslim village in the Yunnan province. Check it out here.

Mr. Wong, there is also a mosque in Shenzhen. I have written something on the same subject. Please see my blog entitled minorities in China.

Assalamualaikum,

Thank you! I have been a silent reader so far and never thought you would find Anak Alam. FYI, I am of Chinese-Malay descent too, hence there is an interest in ‘the root’. The Chinese is on the paternal side. Unfortunately we have lost contact with them, no longer speak the lingo or dress in the costume.

Anyway, this article was edited and published at Brunei Times, http://www.bt.com.bn, sometimes back in Nov 2007.

There is also another article on Chinese Muslim at the blog: http://anakalam.blogsome.com/2008/01/03/a-funeral-at-the-best-strategy-road-mosque/. This is also an unedited version, so please excuse the glaring grammatical errors. You might want to read the edited and published version at Brunei Times, I believe this was in March 2008.

I am hoping to write more on Muslims I met at Dali and Zhaotong, insya-Allah.

In the meantime, please continue writing and should you be in Malaysia, drop us here a line for a possible meet up. Should we of the same feather, might as well flock together,

Wassalam.

AnakAlam,
Malaysia.

Mr. Wang, I am not a Muslim, but I have a lot of respect for your religion.

As you can see from the link, the people at the mosque seemed to be very relaxed. I hope all Muslims feel at home in China.

I think your blog is very interesting. I like to know more about the Muslims in China. I will read your blog from time to time.

brandonzin peace be upon you, My apologies for the late reply. I was tied up with school work. The key to good relations between different cultures, religions and countries is that we all make an effort to understand each other and try to see the perspective of people who are different from us. Especially the Hui Muslims feel at home in China, they are indistinguishable from the Han except that they don’t eat pork. I am glad that you liked the blog. I hope to post more useful information in the future.

As Salaam Alaikum ,

Nice to thear about the Muslims in China , though it is a very very closed state , but still it has always very kind to the Muslims and thanks to its leadership and their policies all Muslim nations have very very Good relationship with China and we hope the ties would become more amd more strong , but there are some in the world who want these ties to break , but Insha Allah it will never happen as it has been Prophesised that “China will support the Muslims ” and in this way Allah will make it the strongest Nation on Earth . Ameen .

We would want CHina to become more and more stronger day by day and become a Super Power and give justice to all the people to whom Justice has always been denied . Ameen .
