Prayers for Eid

The reaction from netizens is just one of the recent examples of Han people's growing anxiety over the Muslim group, fueled by fears of terror attacks both domestic and overseas with the rise of global terrorist groups such as the Islamic State (IS).
"The IS has been committing terrorist attacks under the banner of Islam, which has damaged the image of Muslims to some extent Air Max 2018 Shoes Sale ," Li Lin, an Islamic Studies expert at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, told the Global Times on Thursday.
China has 56 officially recognized ethnic groups, with Han people making up 91.46 percent of the population.

"There are misunderstandings. Many of them don't even know much about Islam," Ibrahim told the Global Times, adding that Chinese Muslims are broadly patriotic and anti-separatist.
