Join us as we uncover the legacy of Islam in China, highlighting the enduring presence of the Hui people and other Muslim communities, and the spread of Islam to Southeast Asia through Chinese Muslim scholars and merchants.
China has never been predominantly ruled by Muslims. However, there are instances in Chinese history where Muslim leaders or groups had significant influence.
Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368): The Yuan dynasty, established by the Mongol Empire under Kublai Khan, saw significant Muslim influence. The Mongols employed Central Asian Muslims in various administrative roles. This influence was more about the Mongol's pragmatic approach to governance rather than a widespread Islamic rule over China.
Ming Dynasty (1368-1644): During the Ming dynasty, several Muslim generals played prominent roles in the military. The most famous among them was Zheng He, a Hui Chinese mariner, explorer, diplomat, and fleet admiral, who led seven major expeditions to the western oceans (South East Asia, South Asia, Western Asia, and East Africa).
Qing Dynasty (1644-1912): The Qing dynasty saw some Muslim rebellions, most notably the Dungan Revolt (1862-1877) and the Panthay Rebellion (1856-1873), which were not aimed at establishing a Muslim rule but were more in response to local grievances.
In modern China, Muslims are a minority, with the largest groups being the Hui and Uighurs. While there have been influential Muslim figures in Chinese history, the political governance of China has predominantly been under non-Muslim rulers.
Yes. You are accurate in history detail. The title of the video is so misleading.
China never be rule by Muslim. China are ancient Civilization. Never will have any dominance Religion ruling China.
You are correct!
Thank you for shedding light on the glorious Muslim past in an age of misinformation and Islamophobia against Muslims. May Allah bless you more
Full of misinformation. China as a whole was never ruled by Islamic Kings only parts were ruled !! There was Tibet, Mongolia which was ruled by Buddhist almost entirely except during Genghis Khan. Islamophobia against Muslims, oh really? If you don't run about shouting name of your god and lynching and stabbing people in Europe for a start may be people might tolerate the 7th century cult!!
Settle down, Islamic empires caused allot of atrocities during their time. Especially the Ottoman Empire.
@@TrooperDan_262and Christian empire ? Nothing 😆
Because you are biased
@@Merguez40006 Christian teaching doesn’t teach to kill, Islam was spread by the sword during your prophets time. Jesus never shed blood in the name of God during his time on earth. Your prophet did and so did his followers.

"The 100 character eulogy that blogging theology loves to share on his channel"... haha
Amazing how sailors in 7th century reached from middle east to china. crossing arabian sea, bay of bengal, andaman sea, straight of malacca, south china sea. wow, just incredible!
You are correct: it is THE PAST!!!
Fantastic, I love every video of yours.. Full of info about Muslims & islam.. Keep it up bro
Ma sha Allah, ma sha Allah!
What a beautiful episode!
Thank you very much, Omar, for all the effort and research you had put into this.
Best part of all: the original city renamed Beijing was designed by a Muslim!
China will Muslim again
As one of the millions of descendants of the Ming royal family, I found it quite fasinating to hear that the first Ming emperror wrote The Hundred-word Eulogy.
From river to the sea Palestine 🇵🇸 will be free 🇵🇸. 🇵🇸
Allahu Akbar Allah is the greatest...
keep dreaming.
a "Palestine" that never existed ever as an independent country, now these so called Arab Muslims want even more land to colonise.
Arabs are colonisers and invaders that came from the Arabian Peninsula.
majority of the Middle East is only Arab and Islamic because of conquests and Islamisation.
You are so awesome. The Mongols ruled China for less than 100 years. The reason for the rebellion was the rise of Muslims. The four great khanates, including China, were all ruled by Islam. The name of the Chinese emperor at that time had the same sound as pig. Chinese tradition is that you cannot talk about pigs. This word, let alone eating pork, something is vaguely revealed here. Subsequently, China also carried out missionary work in the Islamization of Southeast Asia. Half of China’s territory is dominated by Muslims. It is time for China to not become a completely Muslim country. The problem is, just like the Mughals in India, India has not been completely Muslim. After all, it takes time for a large population to convert. At this time, Christian countries came over and interrupted the Islamization of these countries. The podcaster may not know that China 100 years ago There was a massacre and expulsion of Muslims in the country, and the number of casualties was comparable to the number of people in the world war. This is the reason why China’s characteristics as a Muslim country are not obvious today. Real Muslims were either killed or went to Central and South Asia. Even so, there are still many people in China. There are a large number of Muslims, with a population of hundreds of millions, including more than 10 million Uyghurs alone. China’s Muslim population is also among the top in the world, far more than the number of Christians, and its influence is not the same order of magnitude.
Mashaallah, this is amazing information
Are you talking Hui Muslims that are only Muslims in name?
There will be lots of Chinese looking Indians if such an expulsion had taken place. Please don’t make up BS to make a point 😂
Mongol empire was Tengrist. After Mongol empire fragmented into 4 khanates, China was ruled by Yuan dynasty which was Buddhist. Chagatai Khanate and Golden Horde was Muslim. Illkhanate was Buddhist but later converted to the Islam by Mahmud Ghazan.
Baburi turks never forced Indian people to Islam.However every community they are rotten apples but that doesn't mean the specific Empire is bad or good.They were better.
There aren’t hundreds of millions of Muslims living in China. Where did you get that statistic?
As always great job ya Akhi
May I say your pronunciation of the turkic and other names are on point
Well done ya Akhi❤

Asalamu Alaykum Omar, do you have reading recommendations? I really enjoy historical reading, especially Islamic history. Also I love the channel, very enjoyable content JazakAllah khayer.
The history of Islam in China is truly fascinating.
Zheng HE, great admiral of Ming Dynasty, was a Muslim
Allahumma salli ala muhammad Ya rabbi salli alaihi wa sallim. So united from the beginning of the previous Muslims Until the end of the world And after that Akhirat ❤

Truly, there is no other religion or "way of life" that can come anywhere close to the eternal beauty of Islam!
I really wish people could put their unfair preconceptions and biases aside just long enough to learn the truth about this absolutely fascinating religion!!
Love these videos. Would you be able to make a video someday about Admiral Zheng He. BarakAllahu Feek
Zheng He had always been a Buddhist. His hand-copied Buddhist scriptures were sold at a very high price at Sotheby's auction house a few years ago. Muslims forge history every day
This is beautiful information mushallah thank you brother.
Enlightening insights about the history of Islam and china
Thanks for the great work 👍❤️
Yes bro. Even the Islamic kingdom of Champa in present day Vietnam had their Islam roots coming partly from the north i.e. those from the arab persian muslim traders who escaped the massacre in Guangzhou in the 9th century ad.
Ewwww dont group us vietnamese with Muslim, get tf outta here, this nation is Christian and Buddhism only.
I like your work in this channel
Thank you for the historical information.

The most unusual among the latter is the sinified Turkic Muslim eunuch Admiral Zheng He , who commanded Chengzu's great fleets on voyages into the Indian Ocean throughout much of the Yongle reign .

Brother, I really like your effort and appreciate your knowledge level.
Thanks for informing
it's broaden my mind, absolutely a lot... it's a nice escaped after tired with overwhelmed modern Muslim problem we face nowadays
The Yuan Dynasty was about to have a Muslims leader! Please make a video about it.
Yuan dynasty was ruled by Buddhists. Kublai Khan was a grandson of Genghis Khan and Kublai Khan converted to the Buddhism. All of his successors were also Buddhists. Btw, They also used Confuanist governing system.
Yuan dynasty never had a Muslim ruler. But There were some Persian Muslim generals and governors in Yuan dynasty.
@@worlddata8982 It was meant to have Muslim rule. Read about Ananda (King of Anxi).
SubhanAllah ☝🏻🌹
there is a lot of old mosque in china
Kara-Khanid Khanate as well!
The Karakhanids were not Chinese. They were Karluk Turks.
our brothers and sisters never stopped, may Allah be pleased with them Ameen, how inspiring. so interesting thank you for making these videos my brother
If anyone is interested i wrote a nice fiction book about a chinese beggar that became a sultan it's a great story!
amazing video
I lived in China for 12 years and visited many mosques and made many Muslim friends. Your video is excellent and covers the significant developments very succinctly, especially as there are many, many different Muslim ethnic groups.
I hope you will do a video on Islam under the Manchu Qing Dynasty, especially on the Nian and other Muslim rebellions of the 19th century. This will help people understand what has been happening to the Uyghurs during our time. Salaam.
"Omar" lied about Tani Yutaka past in Malaysia ...
Tani didn't traget "Chinese gangs" ...he and his Malay Muslims gang targeted rich Chinese merchants .
Yup, there was still a muslim sultanate in the Yunnan province in the 19th century whose king was Sultan Sulaiman. They rebelled against Beijing and finally put down. Ive read about it more than 20 years ago and forgot the details.
Habibi please don’t shave your beard, beautiful video and very fascinating facts, thanks for your coverage❤
You should do Muslim history in Tibet.
Tibet and China never had a Muslim rule.
@@worlddata8982 No but how it got there.

Not much to say, other than brief alliances and Khaches (apparently descendants of Kashmiri Muslim merchants).

Heres something you may find interesting. :)
The name of my country has nothing to do with the interesting and delicious bird ''turkey''......
.....but the name of the bird does have a connection with the name of my country, let me explain. :)
Name of my country has always been Türkiye, it's been known as such since around the 1200's.
The name it self has a suffix, '' -iye '', that is Turk-iye, where the -iye suffix means 'land of/belonging to',
just like the Latin suffix of '' -ia '', which exists in such country names like
Austr-ia, Austral-ia, Latv-ia, Roman-ia etc etc again meaning 'land of/belonging to'.
Many would remember the country Czechoslovak-ia which changed it's name to Czech Republic and a few years ago changed that to Czechia (that is Czech-ia).
The Latin suffix -ia probably originates from Turkish -iye as Turkish is much older, ancient Turkish been over ten thousand years old.
Spelled in different languages in different ways to phonetically resemble '' Türkiye ''
we got various spellings like;
Turquía (in Spanish),
Turchia (in Italian),
Turquie (in French) and
Turkey (in English)
all trying to resemble the pronounciation of ''Turk-ia'' thus Turkiye.
Mind you this was way before the animal we currently know as 'turkey'' was found by the europeans when they explored the north americas. The bird was first sent to europe from north americas in the year 1519, so up until that point there was no bird named 'turkey'....
...they came across the bird and thought it was a specie of the fowl/chicken they had been buying from the country of Turkiye at the time, so they named the bird ''Turkey Fowl'' meaning ''Turkish Chicken''.....
....just like how a dog breed is known as German Shepherd (because it's from Germany), American Bulldog, British Terrier, Greek Harehound etc etc.
In time you don't get to call the Greek Harehound as simply as ''Greek''; or you don't call the British Terrier as ''British''; or the German Shepherd as ''German'', but in time the Turkish Fowl started to be called just ''Turkey'' and later ''turkey'', and has been going on for hundreds of years.
Now in modern times, this is causing confusion, especially when we have people across the world unable to point to their own country on the map, this ''confusion over the naming'' needed to be corrected.
So my country decided to rectify this confusion that has been going on for so long and corrected the name to Türkiye, which it always was. Basically we didn't change the name of our country, we changed the mistake made in the English language. : )
So, there's some tid bit information for you to have a great day, if you read upto this point you have a great night too, ohh just have a wonderfull life. : )
Best wishes. ;)
Very Informative. Thank you.
❤
Sorry to burst all your Muslim bubbles but we Chinese were just more acceptant to other religions. There were hardly any evidence suggesting Ming rulers were Muslims, and the whole "no mentioning pig and no pork" thing many of you are talking about in the comment section? Well that's just urban myth. We have record of Ming imperial recipes and menus, and they include stewed ham almost daily.
I think you’re right. Because Chinese people eat anything🤢 I literally saw a Chinese women eat an endangered salamander🤢🤢
this might be the most obsessed with islam white dude i ever seen lol weird. anyoway nice turkiye video you made before, respect from turkiye. can you please do one with and about göktürk
Muslim aren’t all Arabs 😂
You seams to be kemalist
Assalamualaikum, there were some leaders of China (From Ming Dynasty) have been Muslims by accounts of some scholars, but it was in Private and they did not express their religion. The founder of the dynasty, the Hong Gwu emperor. And his descendent jean- der emperor who was in the 16th century.
Hong Gwu built mosques around his kingdom, he also has a poem in honor of the Prophet, where the way he talked about the prophet, feels like a Muslim is talking! In fact, we know that his Wife, many of his family members and his trusted generals were Muslims.
Jean- Der emperor was witnessing praying in the mosque in Beijing, banned swine consumption, commissioned artifacts with Islamic inscriptions, and he also had a penchant for Muslim ladies. Add to that his waging successful campaigns against the Portuguese in defense of his Malaya Muslim ally, where he executed numerous captured Portuguese statesmen in revenge for committing atrocities against the Melaka sultanate
So we can say that China had at least some emperors who were Muslims!
Hahaha, history creator... Hongwu was a monk bro, stop finding other people ancestor for your own glory... Jean der wasnt Muslim he just curious about every outside religion... Seriously stop thinking the Han Chinese are stupid by let u all alter our history
God us all Muslims
Who is watching this now
Must change the lighter sound.
Islam grew under the mongols. Most of the Mongols converted to islam.
9 out of 13 Mongol ethnicities are Buddhists including Mongolians. It was the Turks who converted to the Islam.
Stop coping dude. It was the Tatars and many other Turkic tribes. Most Mongolian still Buddhist to these days

You forgot telling about Karluk Turks, who helped Muslims at the battle of Talas.
Haiiiii Aahhhhhh

There were many Muslims in China during the Tang Dynasty, and almost all of them died in the peasant uprisings of the Tang Dynasty. The Hui people today are actually descendants of many Muslim mercenaries brought by the Mongols. The Ming Dynasty government allowed them to continue to exist in China (mainly in Yunnan and Gansu, with a total of several hundred thousand people), but they were not allowed to marry each other (they could only intermarry with the Han people). However, Muslims were never grateful. In 1862, they launched the world's largest Muslim jihad, massacring 15 million Buddhists. Ten years later, these Muslims were almost all wiped out (more than 90% of them were lost). Because the jihad requires all Muslim men to participate.
Zheng He was a Buddhist. His hand-copied Buddhist scriptures were sold at a very high price at Sotheby's auction a few years ago. You can search on Google. Muslims forge history every day
What happened with your beard 😭
thank you, finally you understand, proving that Islam is not a state, not a nation, not a tribe, not genetics, not clothes, not a style of speaking, not even power. only universal truths that are normal healthy and bring peace to life from various trials. Some people maybe sell them cheaply.

This video is unfortunately misleading and wrong on multiple points. (Completely wrong). The Chinese was the continent where traders set out to meet (it was the silk road back then and China was the expo and convention hub during the era.) Even long BEFORE the time of the Ottoman era, the Chinese are known to be kind and accepting. Even Guangzhou had an area where one of the officials gave a muslim friendly area in the city and even built structures as part of the hospitable nature of the Chinese. how does any of this suddenly become "ruled by muslims"? The closest country that was RULED and conquered by the Muslims is india, because india lost every skirmish and had to constantly run south.
No they had Muslim rulers as well. They were Arabs but Chinese converts
@@thedungeon9992 No, they had not. Please name me one Muslim emperor of China.

Interesting how islam is spread by the sword everywhere it enters.
What muslim army went to Malaysia? What muslim army went to Indonesia, the largest muslim country in the world?
The rebels in Tang dynasty killed Arabs and Persians, not because they are Muslims, but because they supported the rebels' enemy. Before the Mongol's invasion of China, there was no Muslim Malay.
Wrong, China was part of Tartaria.
Islam evolved from Venus worship, the Ishtar goddess. (Ishmaelites)
Crescent and Star was Venus and Mercury. Venus the arc/ark and Mercury the messenger/prophet
Hi what you are mentioning is VERY interesting. Can you share more what is this about and who is Tartaria to China?
And i find that the video has quite a few false and misleading information.
You got no idea what your talking about
Wrong ! The Cresent moon symbol was adopted by the ottomans not by the main founders of Islam.
LOL
Damn the Mongols are really something right?
Vietnam di world
feel like you could have mentioned the Ma family ruling large swaths of China during the early 1900s
ADMİN PLEASE TURKISH SUBTITLENG
i doubt you can say china was ruled by muslims or islam it was just partial to the majority
And with that I can now confirm that this channel is the greatest Muslim cope ever
1. No the Chinese were never ruled by Muslims
2. Clearly you never considered to read actual Chinese texts, the Tang - Song and Ming have policies that resember the Russian polgrom against foreigner and outside religion like Islam.
Not Arab Muslim but Chinese’s Muslim
100% copium. The Muslim was not even the emperor and their state religion was not Muslim but Mizong Buddhism. So ignorant about China history
