The origin of meaning:
In ancient Muslim Chinese, the word "Muslim" is often used by Taoism to mean "innocence and simplicity" and "quiet and noble", such as "talking about new words and appreciating reputation": "The Mountain Duke praised Ruan Xian as an official and said with his eyes," Muslims have little desire and can't move. "Shi Shuo Xin Yu": "Taizu respected it with halal. "
In the Tang Dynasty, Li Bai had a poem, "The holy generation is retro, and the clothes are expensive for halal". During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Islamic scholars in China praised God worshipped by Islam with words such as "quiet and pollution-free" and "God is the only true God, so they called Islam" Puritanism "and their temples" Mosques ".
Later, Hui Muslims used the word "halal" more and more in their praise and interpretation of Islam, thinking that purity means purity, truth means impurity, and purity means "halal". As a result, the relationship between the word "halal" and Islam has gradually strengthened. Now commonly used words related to halal include mosque, telling the truth, halal food, halal restaurant and so on.
