Xidaotang (Chinese: 西道堂; pinyin: Xīdàotáng), originally called Jinxingtang 金星堂, the "Han-schools-sect" (Hanxue pai 汉学派) bzw. "Chinese School") is a Chinese-Islamic school of thought. Together with Ikhwan (Yihewani) and Qadim (Gedimu), Xidaotang is one of the three major sects of Islam in China. It was founded by Ma Qixi (1857–1914), a Chinese Muslim from Lintan in Gansu, at the beginning of the 20th Century. Their teaching of Islamic faith is relatively strongly fused with traditional culture. Its members organize collectively and work together. One focus of the organization is on education.
