2022-05-13
Fasting, worship, Rouzi "Rites"... In the past Ramadan, yiliar azezi, a merchant in Yining, Xinjiang, was busy and full. In addition to running his own leather shoes business, as a Muslim, he also participated in various religious activities in the mosque near his home according to religious traditions. On October 10, the people's Government of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region held a video publicity meeting on "the situation of religious freedom in Xinjiang". A number of representatives of Muslim people and religious circles, including Elijah azez, shared their experience of spending Ramadan and Eid al AdhA with more than 60 countries, international organizations and more than 50 media at home and abroad through video connection. Peace, harmony, completeness and happiness are the consensus of all. Xu Guixiang, spokesman of the people's Government of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, said that Muslims of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang spent Ramadan from April 3 to May 2, 2022. On the day of Rouzi Festival on May 3, the Xinjiang government stipulated a one-day holiday. People of all ethnic groups cooked sheep and slaughtered cattle, sang and danced together to celebrate the festival. "People pay New Year greetings to each other, share delicious food and send blessings to each other. The atmosphere is harmonious, which is a vivid display of Xinjiang's respect and protection of freedom of religious belief." At the publicity meeting, hathivmaiti Juma of aitigar mosque said that this mosque with a history of more than 550 years will carry out worship activities on time every morning, noon, afternoon, dusk and night. On the day of Rouzi Festival, thousands of people of all ethnic groups will dance "SAMA dance" in the square in front of the temple to share the joy of the festival. "The customs of Muslims are fully respected, not only in the festival of Rouzi." Imam mukhatiremu xirifu of Urumqi Yanghang mosque said that Muslims around the mosque will be invited to preside over the "Nika" ceremony after they get their marriage certificate from the Civil Affairs Department of the government. When someone died, he went to the Muslim funeral service center to hold a standing ceremony for the dead according to religious customs. Mukhatiremu xirifu introduced that his mosque has heating in winter and air conditioning in summer. The library in the temple provides religious books such as the Koran in Chinese, Uygur, Kazakh and Kirgiz, and the essence of the Prakrit. Some foreign Muslims studying, doing business and traveling in Xinjiang also often come to worship. Zumreti wubuli, member of the Standing Committee of the Party committee of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region and Minister of the United Front Work Department, said that Xinjiang is located in Northwest China and is an area inhabited by multiple nationalities and religions. In Xinjiang, people of all ethnic groups fully enjoy the right to freedom of religious belief. It is entirely up to the citizens to choose whether to believe in religion or not, whether to believe in religion in the past but not now, whether to believe in religion in the past but now, whether to believe in one religion or another, and whether to believe in one sect or another in the same religion. All normal religious activities carried out by religious citizens in places of religious activities and in their homes in accordance with religious customs shall be protected by law. Xu Guixiang said that for some time, the international community has also misunderstood and misunderstood the religious situation in Xinjiang. In particular, in recent years, the United States has continuously issued reports on international religious freedom, falsely claiming that Xinjiang persecutes religious people, restricts freedom of religious belief, and suppresses Muslims. These lies and fallacies are completely inconsistent with reality, "We are willing to further tell the true story of Xinjiang to the international community and enhance mutual understanding and consensus. We also look forward to your on-the-spot investigation in Xinjiang to witness the prosperity and feel a better life." (outlook new era)
