Anti-Shi'ism[edit]

Kashgar had an old tradition of discrimination against Shias. Most foreign slaves in Kashgar (modern Xinjiang) were Shias Tajiks of China. They were referred to by Sunni Turkic Muslims as Ghalcha, and enslaved because they were different from the Sunni Turkic inhabitants.^[1] Shia Muslims were sold as slaves in Khotan region too. The Sunni Muslims of Kashgar traded Shias as slaves.^[2] When Mirza Haider Dughlat got hold of Kashmir, he too persecuted Shias in Kashmir. In his book, Tarikh-i-Rashidi, He writes:

"Many of the people of Kashmir who were strongly attached to this apostasy, I brought back, whether they would or no, to the true faith, and many I slew. A number took refuge in Sufism but they are not true Sufis, having nothing but the name." ^[3]

I am ok if you want to include what he wrote (even though it is not exactly WP:THIRDPARTY sourcing), but to write about Kashgar on this page would be wildly WP:UNDUE. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 18:50, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
