China has a great number of Muslims. Some say it is 2% of the total population (1,2 billion). The biggest Muslim group in China are the Hui. Other Muslim groups in China include the Uighurs and the Kazakhs. They live, for the most part, in Northwest-China in the autonomous region Xinjiang.

A unique feature of Muslim practitioners in China is the presence of women imams.
