DESCRIPTION:Muslim migrations to China shaped a distinctive Islamic materi
 al culture\, from architecture to inscriptions and decorative arts. Since 
 the Tang dynasty\, West Asian merchants settled in southeastern ports such
  as Guangzhou\, forming some of the earliest Muslim communities. The Huais
 heng Mosque\, one of the oldest in China\, has a minaret (9th–11th c.) t
 hat may have been modelled on West Asian prototypes. With the Mongol expan
 sion (13th–14th c.)\, Muslim administrators\, craftsmen\, and traders mo
 ved forward inland\, introducing Central Asian dome techniques. \n\n \n\nA
 t the time of the Ming dynasty\, these migrants and their descendants form
 ed Chinese-speaking Muslim communities. The state adopted assimilation thr
 ough the chici system (敕赐\, imperial patronage)\, which gave legitimac
 y to mosques and probably encouraged the use of the Chinese architectural 
 forms in mosque design\, such us the Niujie (Ox-street) Mosque in Beijing 
 (rebuilt 15th c.).
