Features: Editor's Recommendation: The Islamic women's mosque is a product of the localization of Islam in China and is a unique religious and cultural phenomenon in the world. Women's mosques, women's schools, and female imams play important roles in the lives of Muslim women in China, but there is little attention and research on them. This book is the first to trace the history of the emergence and development of women's mosques, examine and analyze the culture of women's mosques and their impact on the lives of Muslim women, and explore the role of Muslim women in the formation of their ethnic and religious identity. Its academic significance and value are evident.
