  • To the end of Qing Dynasty and at the begining of the Republic China, due to the influence of a1—Wahhabiyyah in China, Hui Muslims in Northwest China's Gansu, Qinghai and Ningxia Provinces were seeking reform and Yihewani was formed. Muslims belonging to Daxuexixiang Mosque purchased land and built a new mosque at Xiaoxuxixiang in 1922. This mosque is located at the north end of Xiaoxuexixiang, hence the name Xiaoxuexixiang Middle Mosque.
