In Ningxia and Gansu, demolitions, closures, and repurposing of mosques show the CCP’s intention to destabilize Hui Islam.
The campaign to eliminate visual traces of Islam in Chinese cities continues unabated.
The 17th-century Muslim scholar is used to reduce Islam to a moral philosophy rather than a religion.
Hailing the 17th-century Jinling School hides another attempt to create an Islam subservient to the Communist Party.
It is the last Muslim great place of worship vandalized by the CCP. It delayed doing so for three years fearing international protests—but the work has now started.
The famous Doudian Mosque and the Songyu Mosque have lost their trademark Islamic features and now look like non-Muslim Chinese temples.
Extraordinary security measures protect the demolition of the iconic dome of a mosque known as “the Mecca of the Hui,” for which Muslims already shed their blood in 1975.
Informants continue to provide to “Bitter Winter” pictures of the iconoclastic fury of the Communist Party against traditional Islamic symbols and signs.
International media attention persuaded the CCP to “postpone” the destruction of the mosques’ “Arabic” features. It has now started again.
