Zhao Li's life
Imam Zhao Li is a Hui nationality from Gudui, Huainan City, Anhui Province, with a poor family. His father is a countryman in the village mosque and is enthusiastic about the cause of Islam. Influenced by his father, Zhao Li wanted to be an excellent imam and a patriotic and devout Muslim when he was a child. 1996 After graduating from high school, he was admitted to Zhengzhou Islamic Institute. He kept in mind Mu Sheng's teaching that "study from cradle to grave", "patriotism is a part of imam" and "practice for this life if you want to live forever, and for future generations if you want to die tomorrow", studied canon, the party's religious principles and policies, laws and regulations, and strived to improve his own quality. Because of his excellent grades, he was appointed as the dean of Baizhuang Mosque in Ningling County, Henan Province when he graduated. From 1999 to 2009, Zhao Li, who was only 3 1 year old, worked as an imam for ten years. He loves his country and religion, works hard and contributes silently, and enjoys high prestige among Muslims. As the Imam of Wu Fang Mosque in Henan and Anhui provinces, he actively promoted the Islamic spirit of patriotism, respect for knowledge, happiness for two generations, peace, tolerance, unity, kindness and kindness, and preached the new "Walzi", demanding that every Muslim in the mosque should take patriotism as part of his faith and do more good things that are conducive to national prosperity, national unity and social stability. When I first arrived at Baizhuang Mosque, some houses in the temple were dilapidated and in urgent need of repair. Imam Zhao and other members of the temple management Committee have gone to dozens of places and gone through hardships to win more than 654.38+0 million yuan in renovation funds, making the dilapidated mosque look brand-new. In 2000, in the Xiguan Mosque in Suiyang District, Shangqiu City, Henan Province, in order to repair the hall that was on the verge of collapse, Zhao Li, the Imam, once again ran around in many ways to actively strive for repair funds. From 2004 to 2005, Imam Zhao Li taught in Zhuang Chao Mosque in Sui County, Henan Province. At the beginning of 2005, the local government planned to build the "Zhejiang-Zhengzhou" highway, which required the demolition of dozens of houses of the Hui people and a gatehouse of the mosque. The Muslim people have great opinions on this, and the road construction project was once forced to stop. Imam Zhao Li and the secretary of the village branch visited the Muslim masses door to door, and used the classical teachings to do the ideological work of the Muslim masses. Through patient and meticulous work, Dong Wang Village, Zhuangchao Town, Sui County has finally paved a smooth road. Imam Zhao Li has become a habit to visit the lonely elderly who returned to the Han nationality nearby during Ramadan. Although his monthly salary is only a few hundred yuan, and he has to support a family of four, he hopes to do his part to help those who need help more. In Baizhuang Mosque, his salary is only 200 yuan. During Ramadan, he took out two months' salary to express condolences to the lonely elderly nearby. From 2000 to 2002, when he was in Xiguan Mosque in Suiyang District, he often helped an 80-year-old Han woman surnamed Yang. In 2003, when he was in Jiaomenzhuang Mosque in Huaiyuan County, Anhui Province, his salary was only 150 yuan. During Ramadan, he took out more than 300 yuan to visit Zhao, an 80-year-old Han man ... From 2005 to 2006, when he was in Nanguan Mosque, Shou County, Anhui Province, he raised 20,000 yuan with the imams of several nearby mosques to express condolences to dozens of elderly people who returned to the Han nationality nearby and give them help. In the Spring Festival of 2009, Imam Zhao Li also donated her own aid1solatium, 300 yuan, to help the poor old Hanhui people near Xiguan Mosque. He was born in a poor family and had little savings for many years. During my visit, I saw a young Muslim with a simple appearance but full of spiritual strength in his heart, an imam who loves his country, teaches and helps others.
