The Islam began to spread in China in Tang Dynasty around 650 AD. Many Muslim immigrants from Central Asia settled permanently in China and they spread the teachings of Mohammed during their visits.They had contacts with local Chinese Muslims converts. They prospered, built mosques and cemeteries and gradually created a unique social living space of their own. At present, China has nine Islamic theological institutes.The number of believers is about 20 million.
