The order to hoist the national flag in all mosques in China........BD NEWS

All the Chinese mosques have been ordered to hoist the national flag.

During the month of Ramadan, the country's top Islamic organization 'China Islamic Association' issued such direction, according to a AFP report.

The government-controlled organization 'China Islamic Association' said in a letter published on their website, that the flag should be raised in such a place, which can be seen from far away.

It has been said in the letter of the organization that if flag hoisting at religious places like mosques, national and social norms will be shown more strongly in it. It will spread and promote nationalism.

In the letter, it is said that the mosque will also help people understand that the communist party's 'main socialist values'. According to Islamic scriptures, it will explain to the followers, so that it 'can be molded in the mind'.

Revised guidelines for religious conduct in China have been issued since February. Then the China Islamic Association published this letter on their website. In China, there are two million Muslims of about ten groups.

Critics say that the Chinese ruling party is thus trying to increase the control of religious areas. Mosques are also ordered to take classes to raise awareness about the constitution and law. In the meantime, some of the provinces of the country have started following this order. National flag hoisted not only in the mosque, but also in many places in the church and Buddhist temples.
