Quote:AsslaaamoalaikumWelcome all new people

I knew that there were muslims in China, but I thought they lived in villages, and had no access to computer etc.

I know that whenever Mushraff (President of Pakistan) goes to China he prays in a masjid in one of the province with a lot of muslims

al-salaam Alaykum brother

in reality, there are many Chinese Muslims living in urban areas,say, In Beijing and Tianjing, either of them have 150-200 thousand Muslims each.

even these in rural areas, the Internet is nothing new and the price for it is acceptable due to the rapid growth of telecommunications in China.

because not mamy of them know English, Most only visit Chinese Islamic forums.

and for these who understand English, they do visit international Islamic websites but these websites are ALL non-forum ones[/color:88f19cfd1a], such as www.islamicity.com, al-islam, islamonline, islamway. you can't sense their existence when they visit these websites. haha :?

I don't know why none of the Islamic forums have been linked on Chinese ones(a lot of non-forums ones are linked). this is why I make great effort to publicize Islamic forums among my fellow brothers and sisters.

and another problem is many of my fellow Muslims haven't connected religion and the interner, it seems they are unaware of the fact that the internet is helpful to preaching Islam.
