Notes

General Note:
Islam means ’submission’ and Muslims are ’those who submit themselves to the One God as revealed in the Qufran. From the Tang dynasty onwards the religion of the Islam was introduced in China by Muslim merchants settling mainly in the area of Yunnan and Gansu provinces. China has had Muslim rulers, most notably under the Yuan dynasty (1271-1368), when many Muslims occupied official positions at court. Fasting (sawin) is one of the five pillars of Islam, symbolising obedience to God but it is also meant to strengthen the unity of the Muslim community. The Ramadan takes place during the ninth month of the Muslim year when during all daylight hours rigid fasting is observed. In the upper part of this print on yellow paper there are three emblems in Arabic calligraphy, done in one of the cursive styles, probably the Riqa, which is often used for making public announcements, while the lower part shows the fasting dates. Apart from the Chinese date the print also reveals a Western date, referring to the Muslim calendar, namely the year 1207 AH (Anno Hijra).
