Yihewani

Yihewani (Chinese: 伊赫瓦尼; pinyin: Yīhèwǎní), or Ikhwan (Arabic: الإخوان, romanizedal-Iḫwān), (also known as al-Ikhwan al-Muslimun, which means Muslim Brotherhood, not to be confused with the Middle Eastern Muslim Brotherhood) is an Islamic sect in China. Its adherents are called Sunnaiti. It is of the Hanafi school, one of the four major schools of Sunni Islam. It is also referred to as "new teaching" (Chinese: 新教派; pinyin: Xinjiao pai) or "latest teaching" (Chinese: 新新教; pinyin: Xinxinjiao). Ikhwan (Yihewani), together with Qadim (Gedimu) and Xidaotang, are the three major sects of Islam in China.[1] The Yihewani sect was labeled as the new teaching (xinjiao).[2] In 1937 it divided into two groups.[3]
