Why don't the Hui people take photos of their sayings

The Hui are an ethnic minority in China, they have their own unique folk culture and religious beliefs. The main reason about the claim that Hui people don't take photos is because they believe that taking photos will take away the souls and blessings of the people being photographed. In the traditional conception of the Hui, the soul of a person is very important, and taking photos may cause damage to the soul. In addition, in Hui folklore and beliefs, there are some legends about photographs that may bring bad luck and disaster, so they generally avoid taking photographs.

However, it should be noted that not everyone among the Hui follows this traditional concept. With the development of society and diversification of ideas, some Hui people also take photos to record their lives and share their memories. Therefore, not taking photos is not a ****same practice for all Hui people, but a concept and choice for photography for some of them.
