Chinese Demolished A New Mosque For
Being To Arabic In Zheqiao
Chinese authorities demolished a Mosque without notice in
Zheqiao village in Gansu province today. We have mostly been hearing of Uyghur
Muslims being targeted by Chinese authorities but the crackdown on religious
freedom is spreading as Hui Muslims are increasingly being targeted too.
Mosque demolitions are spreading across China. Remind yourself that up to 3 million Uyghur Muslims are in concentration camps in East Turkestan (Xinxiang province), little children are taken away from their parents and indoctrinated, people are arrested for practicing Islam, and are forced to commit haram at times such as drinking alcohol and eating pork. People are tortured in camps and many don't come back home alive. Uyghur who are living abroad often have no way of contact with their families and many don't know the state of member of their families who were put in concentration camps.
These aren't myths. This is happening today in China to our brothers and sisters there. Just the other day I was at an event where Uyghur Muslims were talking if their experiences, some who have even had members if their family be put in such camps. Its horrifying hearing some of the witness stories and how the world can let this happen. History is repeating itself and the world remains silent. Raise your voice and spread awareness. Share the videos and posts to your story, pages and social media. Its the least we can do.

A Muslim who was present at the
scene recalled that the government officials claimed that the mosque was
overhauled because its architectural style was “too Arabic.” However, the
authorities have not consulted the local Muslim community before starting the
demolition.
“There were no security measures
implemented whatsoever; they just began the demolition. Falling debris smashed
the roof of the second floor,” said one Muslim who was at the scene.
According
to a Deutsche Welle Chinese report, Local government has ordered the
public not to forward any videos or photos of the demolition. The police later arrested several
residents who recorded videos and shared them
