Shadian is a community where Hui people live in compact communities, and now there are 13000 people living in Shadian. Shadian is located in the north of Gejiu City, Honghe Prefecture, southern Yunnan, near the Tropic of Cancer.

Convenient transportation, located in Gejiu, Mengzi and Kaiyuan, is an important town in southern Yunnan and a public and railway hub.
The ancestors of the Hui people in Shadian came from the subordinates of Sai Dianchi, the king of Xianyang in the late Yuan Dynasty, and Mu Ying and Chang Yuchun, the generals who conquered Yunnan in the early Ming Dynasty. Most of them come from Islamic families, with solid Islamic beliefs and high cultural quality. Shadian Hui people have always attached importance to dual-track education (Chinese and Arabic) and cultivated dual-purpose talents (social and religious), so there are many talents. Aware of God's grace, Shadian has a combination of "time, place and people". Its politics, economy and culture have developed rapidly, and its religion has a long history and enjoys a high reputation. Known as "Wheat Little Hong Kong". Shadian Muslims' consciousness of fulfilling the "five pillars of Islam" has been preserved for a long time and passed down from mouth to mouth. As early as the middle of the Ming Dynasty, people went on a pilgrimage to Mecca. The list of Haji handed down now includes, An's father and son, Liu (female) and so on during Tongzhi period in Qing Dynasty. The Muslim pilgrimage in Shadian is almost uninterrupted. 1990 after the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Saudi Arabia, the number of Haji in Shadian has increased year by year, from a few to dozens to more than a hundred, and in 2006 it exceeded 200. The number of Haji in Shadian has exceeded 1300, accounting for 10% of the Muslim population in Shadian. It is a good thing that there are many Haji in Shadian, which has brought many changes to Shadian: First, more people consciously study and publicize the teachings and canon of Islam. There are ten mosques in Shadian, where there are more than 700 "caliphs" who specialize in Islamic teachings; There are more than 30 amateur learning groups (women's group and elderly group) with 400 to 500 students. Arabic classes are offered in primary and secondary schools and kindergartens in Shadian, so that students can learn not only Arabic knowledge, but also scientific and technological knowledge. Several Haji formed their own missionary group, and adopted the methods of "going out" and "please come in" to exchange experiences in learning Islamic teachings with relatives from all over the world, so as to promote the enthusiasm of running schools. Some Haji give full play to their specialties, compile and publish books on the basic knowledge of Islam and give them to their relatives for free.
Second, more people worship. The Chaozhen Hall in several mosques is not enough and has been expanded again and again. Large enterprises in Shadian (Shadian Electric Metallurgical Plant, He Zhong Zinc Company, etc.). ) and large restaurants (Wei Hui Restaurant, Fengtai Fishing Village, etc. There are chapels and bathrooms for employees and customers to worship in a clean way on time.
Thirdly, Ramadan is a noble month and the best time to do your homework. Dostoevsky in Shadian is particularly prosperous in chanting, worshipping, fasting, praising the Lord and praising saints, which is amazing.
Fourth, the wealthy people enthusiastically donated money (taking zakat and distributing "Nie Tie") to build mosques, schools, bridges and pavements; For the caliph, subsidizing students to go to school; Helping the poor, caring for the elderly and caring for the disabled; Some Haji took the initiative to organize poverty alleviation associations and set up factories to lead poor villagers to get rich together. High-rise buildings have been built in mosques and primary and secondary schools in Shadian, and the teaching facilities are basically complete. Dozens of students are admitted to colleges and universities every year. Some Haji give generously to the Lord, while others donate hundreds of thousands or millions. They said, "Money is given by God and should be used in the right place." Understanding, very in place! They should have given their names, but they didn't agree and didn't want to sell them. Admirable!
Fifth, the social atmosphere in Shadian has been purified and greatly improved. There are no tea shops, pubs, dance halls and game halls in the whole Shadian area. Dozens of shops and supermarkets deal in daily necessities and halal food, but they can't find any outlets selling cigarettes and alcohol. With the increasing number of Muslim costumes in bookstores, books, headscarves, white hats, prayer beads and copper cans are dazzling. Anyone can choose. A warning sign of "smoke-free community" was erected at the entrance of primary and secondary schools; The notice of "No Drinking and Smoking" hung at the entrance of the restaurant has won the understanding and support of customers, and the business is still booming.
