@Roundandroundwego I don’t understand your comment
What are you trying to say?
@Moon3624 that's a really rapid rise from nothing to building big temples in a far off land. About one hundred years. That's a really huge claim. It'll require really huge explanations to be credible.

@Roundandroundwego
Islam first reached China as early as the 7th century by merchants travelers and preachers.
@Moon3624 that's probably true. Still seems fast.
The rapid rise of Islam in China needs explanation. There are still millions of Chinese Muslims.

@Roundandroundwego my post is only about the oldest mosque in China which is believed to be as old as 1300 years or at least very very old from what I have read.
If you are interested about the history of china and Islam
I honestly don’t have the answers
As I am not well read on it

They say
It is parcel of knowledge to say to the things you don’t know about “I don’t know “
So
If you ever do read about it, do enlighten me with your findings.
@Moon3624 that mosque is only interesting because of those people. But you should not understand that. Connecting dots is a leftist project and online we don't connect history, buildings and people today. We know nothing that would matter. It's just an old building and you are just a random bag of cells pretending to converse.
