Customs and Communion:Chinese Politics and Religion in Confucian, Scholastic and Taoist Temples in Xinjiang Huijiang in the Qing Dynasty

During the Qing Dynasty,the Huijiang society in Xinjiang was named after the Islamic custom of “Hui”,and the Huijiang experienced the military government system in the early period and the provincial system in the late period,and the Chinese rituals and rules of the Qing Dynasty in Xinjiang did not change the customs of the Huijiang.Ru Shi Tao(“儒释道”) temples,as part of the public infrastructure,gradually spread throughout the cities and towns at all levels of Xinjiang with the establishment of the Qing Dynasty’s governance system,resulting in a long-term cultural symbiosis between Ru Shi Tao and Islam in Xinjiang.The governance of Huijiang under the Qing Dynasty was consistent through the Ru Shi Tao temples,and through the coexistence and exchange of beliefs and customs,the civilisation of Ru Shi Tao and Islam came into being,which was in fact a civilised strategy of Chinese politics and religion that was unified with the “rule by customs”.
