Because Pakistanis have habbit of being mesihah of all muslims. they were against India abolishing triple talaq even when it is abolished in their own country long time back.its Chinese rule, Chinese will face its consequences.. Nothing to do with Pakistan, why people especially bharati expect Pakistan to interfare? Why they are not taunting Arabs, Persians, Turks, central and east asian Muslim countries for not interfaring in China??
its clear bharatis are butthurt over close relationship between Pakistan and China..
Keep growing and keep implementing islam
That's always the plan, they will name themselves, pray and increase as Muslim, Chinas Muslim population is growing just like everywhere else
China can learn from its mistakes or it can create more enemies in the Muslim world where its seen mostly positively, China has enough enemies in the west and surrounding it so it needs to be smarter
For Pakistan we have repeatedly stuck our neck out for eg Afghans with little favour
China is a great ally and a corner stone of our geo strategic future
We have only one enemy we hate above all others and that's India and its in our interest to ally with China
Its up to China to be smart enough not to burn its bridges
We do have very serious problem with radical veils and beards like following:I think you have a wrong image of the Uighur veil...
When we speak about a Veil... I think you are seeing that...
BUT IT's NOT... That's Called Burqa... It's not even from the ARAB region! it's from AFghanistan...
Here a Uighur like Veil...
You see... it's not from the ARABIC region... It's typical from Central Asia since centuries...
So now ask yourself...
Should they ban that?
This is deplorable if true and shows a wrong reaction to a genuine problem.
However, the point that Muslims elsewhere in China do not face these issues is quite perplexing and only points to an oppressive tactic aimed at controlling the Xinjiang reigion more than anything to do with religion in general

Interestingly, in Japan, all Japanese citizens must bear Japanese names. Immigrants must change their names to be Japanese style compatible in order to become citizens. I wonder how a Muslim immigrant changes his name.China bans religious names for Muslim babies in Xinjiang
List of banned baby names released amid ongoing crackdown on religion that includes law against veils and beards

Many couples fret over choosing the perfect name for their newborn, but for Muslims in western China that decision has now become even more fraught: pick the wrong name and your child will be denied education and government benefits.
Officials in the western region of Xinjiang, home to roughly half of China’s 23 million Muslims, have released a list of banned baby names amid an ongoing crackdown on religion, according to a report by US-funded Radio Free Asia.
Names such as Islam, Quran, Saddam and Mecca, as well as references to the star and crescent moon symbol, are all unacceptable to the ruling Communist party and children with those names will be denied household registration, a crucial document that grants access to social services, healthcare and education.
A full list of names has not yet been published and it is unclear exactly what qualifies as a religious name.
China blames religious extremists for a slew of violent incidents in recent years that have left hundreds dead. It has launched a series of crackdowns in Xinjiang, home to the Muslim Uighur minority and one of the most militarised regions in the country.
Uighur rights groups complain of severe restrictions on religion and freedom of expression, and say the attacks are isolated incidents caused by local grievances, not part of a wider coordinated campaign. Young men are banned from growing beards in Xinjiang and women are forbidden from wearing face veils.
Rights groups were quick to condemn the name ban, which applies to dozens of names deemed by Communist party officials to carry religious overtones.
“This is just the latest in a slew of new regulations restricting religious freedom in the name of countering ‘religious extremism,’” Sophie Richardson, China director at Human Rights Watch, said in a statement. “These policies are blatant violations of domestic and international protections on the rights to freedom of belief and expression.
“If the government is serious about bringing stability and harmony to the region as it claims, it should roll back – not double down on – repressive policies.”
Authorities in Xinjiang passed new legislation last month expanding a host of restrictions, including allowing staff at train stations and airports to deny entry to women wearing face veils and encouraging staff to report them to the police.
The new law also prohibits “abnormal beards” and “naming of children to exaggerate religious fervour”. Various cities in Xinjiang previously had rules banned women wear face veils and men with long beard from public transportation, but the new law applies to the entire region.
A Communist party village chief and ethnic Uighur was demoted last month for not having a “resolute political stance” after he refused to smoke in front of Muslim elders. The state-run Global Times newspaper quote another local official as saying cadres should push against religious convention to demonstrate “their commitment to secularisation”.

@Attila the Hun now you know why Pakistanis claim Turko Arabic Ancestry ?
Because Pakistanis have habbit of being mesihah of all muslims. they were against India abolishing triple talaq even when it is abolished in their own country long time back.
on serious note, keeping beard or having fast should not be banned untill it is for some commercial purpose where these things obstruct normal way of working.
We do have very serious problem with radical veils and beards like following:
Any wise and orderly nation won't wait until the society has the infighting or some wreak havoc occurs within the society to have the response... it will be too late and too costly... just a dumb nation will play the waiting game with this regard.
Saudi Arabia bans entire sects- entire trains of thought. Again, does not excuse China nor does it make it the most reprehensible as you are paintingjust like Kashmir in India.
and I can/will bring up a white supremacist racist incident in the US for every instance of bigotry or worse in India treating it's muslims that you can come up with so don't go there, all societies have their share of problems no matter how advanced socially or economically they may be.
this is beyond extreme discrimination, let's at least be honest and call it out..
