Xidaotang (Chinese 西 道 堂, first called Jinxingtang 金星堂, the "Han school sect" (Hanxue pai 汉 学派) or "Chinese school") is a Chinese-Islamic school. It was founded by Ma Qixi (1857–1914), a Hui Chinese from Lintan in Gansu , in the early 20th century. In their teaching, Islamic belief is relatively strongly fused with traditional Chinese culture.

It is mainly found in Lintan and Hezheng in northwest China's Gansu Province , and has followers in Qinghai Province , Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, and Sichuan Province . It is a Hanafi school of the Sunni tradition similar to Qadim (Gedimu), which has incorporated elements of Jahriyya . Works by Liu Zhi and others serve as her da'wa source.

Great emphasis is placed on jiaocheng (教 乘) and on “one's own belief system” ( daocheng道 乘), “which gradually leads to depersonalization and a mystical union with God” (Hu Fan).

Its members are collectively organized in a kind of Muslim commune and work together. One focus of the organization is on education.

The holiday Mawlid an-Nabi (in honor of the Prophet Mohammed's birthday ), the anniversary of his death, and the anniversary of the death of Ma Qixi , the movement's founder, are of great importance . No mausoleums for the murshids (guides / teachers) were erected after him.

Other leaders of the movement were from 1918 to 1946 Ma Mingren (1896-1946) and from 1947 to 1958 Min Xuecheng ( i.e. Min Zhidao ) (1882-1957).

Together with Ikhwan ( Yihewani ) and Qadim ( Gedimu ), Xidaotang is one of the three great school traditions in China .
