This Xinhua report exposes a shortcoming that prevails in China's understanding of Islam/Muslims.A mosque is not a temple. Muslims do not have temples. Mosques are just selected places of saying prayers beside being a community center,etc.

Yes, in a mosque, but they are same in Chinese "寺", and this in eyes of China's public, caused by a not well organized thing at public places, just as in school, fair , religious sites and square places, the organizer should think over and let children and elder out of crowd, not do something which may bring people crowd such as free gifts without order(hand out free religion food, since people thougth who got the food would get a good luck in future year in this event). Eg: one local broadcasting station canceled sending free radio players at public super market last week, and will lottery and send by express delivery.

The government should ban children from attending such gatherings. They are most vulnerable.
