China Created a Fake Eid
anchor: China seems good at hiding things. While religion is suppressed, Uyghur Muslims are facing genocide at the hand of the Chinese communist party. But they still want the world to know that Muslims are free to practice their faith. Here is a special report by Muslim Network TV. Narrator: Muslims fast during Ramadan. And then they offer prayers on Eid day and celebrate. Not in China. And definitely not Muslims in Eastern Turkestan which Chinese call Xinjiang or a new colony. Uighur and other Turkic Muslims are not allowed to fast or pray. Police actually go around before dawn raiding houses if the lights are on. The light indicates that someone is up early, eating before fasting. However, this Eid Chinese Communist party decide to fake an Eid. Yes. They created a fake eid. Here is a clip broadcasted by the Chinese State TV. Watch it before we decipher it for you. First thing to note is that this Chinese TV did not show any Eid prayers. Prayers are not allowed. That is consistent with the Communist policy. Secondly, notice the musicians. They are placed at the top of the mosque. As a matter of fact it is against the Muslim culture to have musicians at the top of a mosque. It is also against the concept of respect among Turkic Muslims. But Chinese producer probably has not studied Islam deep enough. Here is an earlier video of the mosque. In this 6 year old video, you see a welcoming plaque with the statement of faith in Islam. It was still there 4 years ago in this CCTV video. And there was no Chinese flag Even in Sept 2017, the multicoloured scriptural plaque was there but then the Chinese flag was added. It shows how gradually the character of a mosque was destroyed. two years ago in 2019 however, that faith-based plaque that adorned its main entrance was gone. A Chinese flag is installed at the top of the mosque. There is hardly any mosque in any Muslim nation which installs a national flag at the top of the mosque. This is simply not done. But in China, the mosques which still exist are forced to install a flag. And in some mosques photo of the Chinese president is installed where God’s name is written in Mehrab. Kashghar is an ancient Muslim city. It is an icon of the Islamic civilization. The Chinese Communist Party has erased the historic Islamic identity. This Id Kah mosque was in the center of the bustling heart of the Kashgar. Chinese demolished houses to create this plaza for tourists. BBC estimates that 16,000 mosques are demolished in Eastern Turkestan. Thanks to the tourist this mosque survives. A former Imam of this mosque was arrested in 2017 and is sentenced to 15 years in prison. The current Imam at the mosque, however, denies religious oppression by the ruling Communist Party. The mosque structure dates back to 996 AD It has a capacity for 20,000 people to pray Muslims are no longer allowed to pray here. This Uighur tweeted missing her father on 5th eid. Here is Aydin Anwar from Save Uyghur campaign. Here family from Kashgar is missing 93 relatives. Kashghar is almost empty nowadays. Most people are in the largest concentration camps since the Nazis They cannot practice their faith. Except when the Chinese government forced them to dance. Dance for the party. No prayers of Allah.
