What is the urgency of Hui legends? ! ! ! ! ! !

There are two kinds of Hui legends: myths and folk stories.

First of all, myths and legends

There are two kinds of myths in Hui folk literature: one is to explain the origin of human beings, such as Adan, Haowa and Terran Adan. One kind reflects the struggle between human beings and nature and various evil forces, such as the story of Adam seeking fire and the sun. These works show the spirit of Hui ancestors to explore the mysteries of nature and the heroic spirit of fighting against nature.

Hui legends are rich in content and can be roughly divided into the following seven categories:

1. Legends with Islamic color, such as the legend of Muhammad and Elsa.

2. Legends of peasant uprisings, such as those of Du Wenxiu, Ma Hualong and Bai Yanhu.

3. Legends about the origin and unification of the Hui nationality, such as The Origin of the Hui Nationality and The Story of Wangasi.

4. Scenery legends, such as the legends of Shi Yangzi and Phoenix.

5. Explain the legends of animals, plants and natural phenomena.

6. Legends of revolutionary struggle, such as "Chairman Mao in Ji" and "The Story of Ma Benzhai".

7. Legends of historical figures, such as Harry's story and Chang Yuchun's story.

Second, folk stories.

Hui folk stories include stories of resisting exploitation and oppression, stories of love, stories of promoting good and punishing evil, stories of pursuing a better life, stories of revolutionary struggle and stories of witty people. Excellent works include The Story of Ibrahim, Smart Goods, Mansour, Bending Stick, The Story of Baliha, Goldfinch, The Story of Abdul, etc.

Hui myths and legends and folk stories reflect the national character and psychological quality of the Hui people. Some of them are religious.

Extended data:

In Xinjiang, Qinghai and other Hui inhabited areas, Islamic myths about creation, creation and flood are widely circulated. The well-known "Adan and Good Baby" and "Manzu Adan" vividly describe the legend of God's creation and show people the wonderful picture of the struggle between human ancestors and nature in the wild times.

The myths held by these ethnic groups who believe in Islam have been passed down from generation to generation with their own feelings and imagination after being accepted by the Hui people in Qinghai, and naturally integrated into their own national culture. After the hard work of generations of folk writers and artists, the Hui people in Qinghai have left many legends about the origin, people, scenery and animals for future generations.

For example, The Legend of Wang Baba, Kangxi's Worship to Horses, amiri Mountain and Huangnan Mountain, The Legend of Flies, etc. With exaggerated and exaggerated methods, it tells the historical fact that the first ancestors of China Hui people came to settle in China from Arabia, showing the friendly exchanges between Chinese and Arab people in ancient times.

Hui folk stories are rich in reserves and diverse in forms, and their contents almost penetrate into every corner of social life. Some stories reflect people's resistance and ridicule to the rulers and the rich, which are both interesting and touching, such as Sanhe Songzike selling incense. Some stories reflect young men and women's pursuit of free love and happy marriage, and show their hatred and resistance to feudal ethics.
