China Bans Ramadan Fasting
In Mainly Muslim Region
— Jun 19, 2015 1:23 am | 0 Comments
China has banned civil servants,
students and teachers in its mainly
Muslim Xinjiang region from fasting
during Ramadan and ordered
restaurants to stay open.
Most Muslims are required to fast from
dawn to dusk during the holy month,
which began yesterday, but China’s
ruling Communist party is officially
atheist and for years has restricted the
practice in Xinjiang, home to the mostly
Muslim Uighur minority.
“Food service workplaces will operate
normal hours during Ramadan,” said a
notice posted last week on the website
of the state Food and Drug
Administration in Xinjiang’s Jinghe
county.
Officials in the region’s Bole county
were told: “During Ramadan do not
engage in fasting, vigils or other
religious activities,” according to a local
government website report of a meeting
this week.
Each year, the authorities’ attempt to
ban fasting among Uighur Muslims in
Xinjiang receives widespread criticism
from rights groups.
Uighur rights groups say China’s
restrictions on Islam in Xinjiang have
added to ethnic tensions in the region,
where clashes have killed hundreds in
recent years.
China says it faces a “terrorist threat” in
Xinjiang, with officials blaming
“religious extremism” for the growing
violence. Source =www.LEADERSHIPNEWS.NG.COM

What China is doing is wrong but it serves the islamist right. Islam as a religion routinely tramples on the religious freedom and rights of others so it's nice to see them being given a taste of their own medicine.
