Race Relations in Urumqi Face Uncertain Future
Tensions still remain between Han Chinese and Uighur Muslims following last week's violence in Urumqi, the capital of China's far-western Xinjiang region. Chinese authorities say 184 people were killed in the unrest, 137 of them were ethnic Han. Some Han and Uighur people insist the riots were an aberration in an otherwise harmonious interracial city. But other Uighurs accuse authorities of longstanding discrimination against ethnic minority Muslims. Alison Klayman has this report from Urumqi.

Chinese Government Provides Support for Ramadan Ceremonies
Chinese Islamic clergy representatives on Saturday said the government has been providing support to Muslims for religious ceremonies held during Ramadan in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.
Social workers at various communities have been working overtime in order to provide security and aid for Muslims during their Islamic fasting month.
Traffic police officers have increased patrols on roads and set up temporary parking lots for Muslims who drive to mosques in suburb areas for religious ceremonies during Ramadan.
The government has made a lot of efforts to ensure a safe and pleasant Ramadan for Muslims, said Ospan Sawut, an imam at a mosque in Urumqi, capital of Xinjiang.
Islamic clergy members said legal religious activities have enjoyed the government protection.
Followers of Islam from all ethnic groups in Xinjiang have enjoyed a free and peaceful Ramadan, without any interference, said Adil Abduhaliq, a teacher at the Xinjiang Islamic Institute in Urumqi.
Followers of Islam from all ethnic groups are very free throughout Ramadan. At each pray time we have nearly 1,000 people praying together at our Id Kah Mosque. The Jumu'ah prayer witnessed more than 8,000 people praying together. Our religious ceremonies went on without any restriction, said Abdukadir, a clergyman from the Id Kah Mosque in Kashgar of southern Xinjiang.
Ramadan started on June 18 and will end on July 17 this year. In Islam, Ramadan is a holy month when the Prophet Muhammad is said to have received the Quran to guide believers. To commemorate the occasion, Muslims are required to fast from sunrise to sunset during Ramadan.

Explainer: Why Xinjiang is so important to China
Subscribe to our YouTube channel here:
The Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region is one of the most tightly controlled areas in China. Human rights activists accuse the Chinese government of carrying out a full scale crackdown on ethnic Uygurs and other Muslim minorities who live in the region, sending up to 1 million to political re-education camps. But authorities say the sweeping security measures are to fight terrorist threats to keep the country safe.
CHINA UPDATE: 156 Slain as Muslims Riot in China
Violent Muslim protestors overturned barricades, attacked vehicles and houses, and clashed violently with police, according to media and witness accounts. State television aired footage showing Muslims attacking and kicking people on the ground. Other people, who appeared to be Han Chinese, sat dazed with blood pouring down their faces. The Muslims had been demanding justice for two Uighurs killed last month during a fight with Han Chinese co-workers at a factory in southern China.
Xinjiang Bike Tour from Urumqi to Kazakhstan: Riding Through A Police State!
This week we cycled from Urumqi to the Kazakhstan border through the most heavily controlled region of China, Xinjiang. Xinjiang is where the Uyghur people live, aka Chinese Muslims, and for the past few years China has been cracking down on the presence of Islam by destroying mosques and even going as far as putting people in internment camps that the government likes to call re-education centers. We had heard there was a lot of police presence in this province, but honestly until we went here and experienced it for ourselves we had no idea what we were in for.
I took me forever to put this video together trying to piece the story together of us riding through Xinjiang. I still don't think I did our experience justice. There is very little live footage in this video because I honestly did not feel comfortable filming in this part of China. Police and cameras were everywhere and we were getting stopped by the police and asked to show our passports constantly for no reason other than the fact that we existed at that moment in time. The last thing I wanted was to give the police any more reason to question us, and I DEFINITELY didn't want to get mistaken for a journalist by filming and taking photos all the time.
What I don't think came across well in this video is just how much the police in Xinjiang interfere in people's everyday lives. We honestly felt like we had no freedom at all. We could only ride on one road, only stay in certain cities, and then in those cities could only reside at one or two hotels of the 50+ hotels in town. Of course it was always the most expensive hotels in town that would accept us. And camping was strictly forbidden (although we did it anyway).
It seemed like they just wanted to take our money under the guise of safety. Their reasoning for everything was always to keep us safe. But keep us safe from what we still don't know. The local people in Xinjiang were incredibly nice, and we never once felt unsafe during our week of riding through the region. I think safety is just the ploy they use, a standard line told to the policemen by the government. What they're really doing is preventing us from seeing what they don't want foreigners to see. The destruction of an entire religion, and the containment of people for little more than practicing that religion.

China - Xinjiang Seeks Solution For Discontent
T/I: 10:27:27
Economic growth, not guns, is the ultimate solution for curbing
communal discontent in Xinjiang, say the leaders of the remote
northeastern Chinese province. Xinjiang is rich in natural
resources, especially oil and gas, and has been earmarked by China
as a major mineral source for the entire country for the next
several decades. Four times the size of California, the province
has a population of 16.3 million people, of which there are 7.7
million ethnic Uighurs. Kazakhs, Mongols and Han Chinese form the
rest of the populace. Many Uighurs complain that Xinjiang's
development is predatory with resources shipped out of the region
to other parts of China. Such a practice, they say, has resulted
in little or no local economic growth. There is simmering
discontent. According to foreign press reports, Islam, the most
practised religion in the region, has become a rallying point for
disgruntled groups. Muslims are said to be behind the Sectarian
violence that erupted near Kucha town in June last year. =

Masjid dan Makam Sahabat Nabi di Guangzhou China (Masjid Saad Abi Waqas)
Sa’ad bin Abi Waqash dikenal sebagai penyebar Islam di Cina. Lahir dan besar di kota Makkah, ia dikenal sebagai pemuda yang serius dan cerdas. Dia termasuk dalam 10 sahabat yang dijamin masuk surga oleh rasulullah.
Menurut catatan rasmi dari Dinasti Tang yang berkuasa pada 618-905 M dan berdasarkan catatan serupa dalam buku A Brief Study of the Introduction of Islam to China karya Chen Yuen, Islam pertama kali datang ke China sekitar tahun 30 H atau 651 M.
Disebutkan, Islam masuk ke China melalui utusan yang dikirim oleh Khalifah Usman bin Affan (23-35 H / 644-656 M). Menurut catatan Lui Tschih, penulis Muslim China pada abad ke-18 dalam karyanya Chee Chea Sheehuzoo (Perihal Kehidupan Nabi), Islam dibawa ke China oleh rombongan yang dipimpin Saad bin Abi Waqqas, bersama sahabat lainnya pada tahun 616 M.
Setelah kunjungan pertamanya. Saad pulang ke Arab. Ia kembali lagi ke China 21 tahun kemudian atau pada masa pemerintahan Usman bin Affan, dan datang dengan membawa salinan Al Quran.
Pada kedatangannya yang kedua di tahun 650, Saad berlayar melalui Samudera Hindi ke Laut China menuju pelabuhan laut di Guangzhou. Kemudian ia menuju ke Chang’an atau kini dikenal degan nama Xi’an melalui rute yang kemudian dikenal sebagai Jalan Sutera.
Bersama para sahabat, Saad datang dengan membawa hadiah dan diterima dengan baik oleh kaisar Dinasti Tang, Kao-Tsung (650-683).
Kaisar mengizinkan Saad bin Abi Waqqas dan para sahabat untuk mengajarkan Islam kepada masyarakat di Guangzhou.
Saad bin Abi Waqqas kemudian menetap di Guangzhou dan ia mendirikan Masjid ini.
Sebagian orang percaya Saad bin Abi Waqqas menghabiskan sisa hidupnya dan meninggal di Guangzhou, China. Yang kini Makamnya menjadi tempat kunjungan wisata religi dari seluruh pelosok dunia.
Namun, sebagian lagi menyatakan, Saad meninggal di Baqi’, dekat Madinah, dan dimakamkan dikawasan makam para sahabat.
Meskipun tidak diketahui secara pasti di mana Saad bin Abi Waqqas meninggal dan dimakamkan, namun yang pasti ia memiliki peranan penting terhadap perkembangan Islam di China.
Kalaupun kuburan yang ada di Masjid bukan kubur Saad bin Abi Waqas tetapi pastinya kubur tersebut adalah kubur seorang berbangsa Arab yang memiliki jasa besar kepada perkembangan Islam di China.
Nah, bagaimana pendapat teman-teman? Tulis di kolom komentar di bawah ya!
====================
Sa'ad bin Abi Waqash is known as the spreader of Islam in China. Born and raised in the city of Makkah, he is known as a serious and intelligent young man. He was among the 10 friends who were guaranteed to enter heaven by the Messenger of Allah.
According to the official records of the Tang Dynasty ruling at 618-905 AD and based on a similar note in Chen Yuen's A Brief Study of the Introduction of Islam to China, Islam first came to China around the year 30 H or 651 AD
Mentioned, Islam entered into China through a messenger sent by Caliph Usman bin Affan (23-35 H / 644-656 AD). According to Lui Tschih, 18th-century Chinese writer in his Chee Chea Sheehuzoo (The Life of the Prophet), Islam was brought to China by a group led by Saad bin Abi Waqqas, along with other companions in 616 AD
After his first visit. Saad returns to Arabia. He returned to China 21 years later or during the reign of Usman ibn Affan, and came with a copy of the Qur'an. On his second arrival in 650, Saad sailed through the Indian Ocean to the Chinese Sea to the sea port in Guangzhou.
With his companions, Saad came with a gift and was well received by the Tang Dynasty Emperor, Kao-Tsung (650-683). The Emperor allowed Saad bin Abi Waqqas and his Companions to teach Islam to the people of Guangzhou.
Saad bin Abi Waqqas then settled in Guangzhou and he founded this mosque.
Some believe Saad bin Abi Waqqas spent the rest of his life and died in Guangzhou, China. What is now his grave to be a religious tourist visit from all corners of the world.
However, some say, Saad died in Baqi ', near Madina, and was buried in the graves of the Companions. Although it is not known exactly where Saad bin Abi Waqqas died and was buried, but he certainly has an important role to play in the development of Islam in China.
Even if the grave in the mosque is not the grave of Saad bin Abi Waqas but surely the grave is the grave of an Arab nation who has great service to the development of Islam in China.

Adventures in China: Kashgar!
Hey guys! I wanted to share out visit to Kashgar, Xinjiang, China. Featuring clips from Shipton's Arch, the old city, and the new city. It was a blast to see.
Since most of the population of Kashgar is Uyghur, I thought it was appropriate to include a uyghur song in the video. I'm unsure the name or artist since it was one of many songs one of the students game me when I asked for some tunes.
