====Tensions between Hui and Uyghurs====

Tensions between Hui Muslims and Uyghurs have arisen because Hui troops and officials often dominated the Uyghurs and crushed Uyghur revolts.{{sfn|Starr|2004|p=311}} Xinjiang's Hui population increased by more than 520 percent between 1940 and 1982, an average annual growth of 4.4 percent, while the Uyghur population only grew at 1.7 percent. This dramatic increase in Hui population led inevitably to significant tensions between the Hui and Uyghur populations.

====Tibetan-Muslim sectarian violence====
[[File:A new Muslim Mosque in Lhasa.jpg|thumb|The [[Lhasa Great Mosque]] in Tibet]]
In Tibet, the majority of Muslims are Hui people. Antagonism between Tibetans and Muslims stems from events during the Muslim warlord [[Ma Bufang]]'s rule such as the [[Ngolok rebellions (1917–49)]] and the [[Sino-Tibetan War]], but such hostility was suppressed after the [[annexation of Tibet by the People's Republic of China]].<ref name="Demick"/> However, renewed Tibetan-Muslim violence broke out in the wake of the gradual liberalization of China, that resulted in increased movement of people, such as Han and Hui Chinese, into Tibetan areas.<ref name="Demick"/> Muslim restaurants were attacked, and apartments and shops of Muslims were set on fire in the riot in mid-March 2008, resulting in death and injury. Tibetans also boycotted Muslim owned businesses.{{sfn|Fischer|2005|p=17}} In August 2008, the main mosque in [[Lhasa]] was burned down by Tibetans during the [[2008 Tibetan unrest]].<ref>{{cite news|date=28 March 2008 |title=Police shut Muslim quarter in Lhasa |url=http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/asiapcf/03/28/tibet.china.ap/ |work=CNN |location=Lhasa, Tibet |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080404073742/http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/asiapcf/03/28/tibet.china.ap/ |archive-date=4 April 2008 |url-status=dead}}</ref> Some Muslims avoided overt display of religious identity in the wake of the violence.

==== Sectarian conflict ====
There have been many occurrences of [[Muslim groups in China#Infighting between sects|violent sectarian fighting between different Hui sects]], mostly dating from the [[Qing dynasty]]. Sectarian fighting between Hui sects led to the Jahriyya rebellion in the 1780s and the 1895 revolt. After a hiatus after the People's Republic of China came to power, sectarian infighting resumed in the 1990s in Ningxia between different sects. In recent years, the [[Salafi movement]] in China has increased rapidly among Hui population with more mosques occupied under Salafis in China. Several sects refuse to intermarry with each other. One Sufi sect circulated an anti-Salafi pamphlet in Arabic.

A small but growing number of Huis who supported or even joined the [[Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant]]. Chinese officials were believed to have ignored growing Hui Sufis' resentment against growing Salafi movement until recently.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.latimes.com/world/asia/la-fg-china-saudi-arabia-20160201-story.html |title=In China, rise of Salafism fosters suspicion and division among Muslims |website=[[Los Angeles Times]] |date=February 2016 |access-date=27 June 2020 |archive-date=27 June 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200627173216/https://www.latimes.com/world/asia/la-fg-china-saudi-arabia-20160201-story.html |url-status=live }}</ref> ISIL had released a music video called "I am a mujahid" (我們是Mujahid) in Mandarin to reportedly attract Hui Muslims into joining the organization.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.pri.org/stories/2015-12-08/isis-uses-soothing-music-recruiting-tool |title=ISIS uses soothing music as a recruiting tool — in China |date=8 December 2015 |access-date=20 October 2019 |archive-date=20 October 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191020055128/https://www.pri.org/stories/2015-12-08/isis-uses-soothing-music-recruiting-tool |url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |url=http://sitemultimedia.org/audio/SITE_IS_HMC_Chinese_Mujahid.mp3 |title=Audio |website=SITE Intelligence Group |access-date=20 October 2019 |archive-date=20 October 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191020132828/http://sitemultimedia.org/audio/SITE_IS_HMC_Chinese_Mujahid.mp3 |url-status=live }}</ref>
