History of Islâm in China
According to the traditions of the Muslims of China,it was during the Caliphate of Uthman that Islâm was first brought to China. The leader of this delegation was Said Ibn Abi Waqqas, one of the noted Companions of the Prophet.
His party included fifteen persons who had travelled together by way of the Indian Ocean and the China Sea to the port city of Guangzhou in southeaster China, going overland from there to the capital city, Chang'an, where they paid their respects to the emperor.
