Islam was introduced to China in the seventh century A.D with nearly
18 million believers from Hui, Uygur, Tartar, Kirgiz, Kazakh, Ozbek, Dongxiang,
Sala and Baoan nationalities.
There are two varieties of Islamic mosques. The ones seen in the northwest
of China are just like the ones in the Middle East. The other ones look
like Chinese temples.
Most of the Muslims in China live in compact communities in Xinjiang
Uygur Autonomous Region, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, Gansu, Qinghai
and Yunnan Provinces; besides, some Muslims in small groups live in other
provinces or cities in China. At present, there are more than 30 thousand
mosques in China with over 40 thousand imams or ahungs.
