Yinzhuang Mosque

📜 About & history

Yinzhuang Mosque is in Yinzhuang, Yuzhuang Village, Guanwangmiao Township, Suiping County, Henan, and serves about 700 Hui living mainly in Yinzhuang, Yuzhuang and Youhe. It was founded in 1827 (7th year of the Qing Daoguang era) with funds pooled by local Hui, whose numbers had grown and who lived far from the Shizhaipu Mosque. The original 3-mu site had a prayer hall and lecture rooms; it was rebuilt in 1941 and pulled down during the Cultural Revolution. Between 1991 and 1997 the congregation rebuilt a three-bay prayer hall, three lecture rooms and three ablution rooms, totalling 186 square metres. Past imams include Ma Zhanbiao, Ma Zhenkun, Li Wenjun, Zhao Wenjing, Lü Wanchao, Lü Yuanqing and Zhang Qingyun; the present imam is Shan Yushun.
