A Partial Translation from "Kaikyo kara Mita Chugoku" (written by Zhang Chengzhi) (1)

The oppression policy against the Jahriyya during the Qing Dynasty was severe. After the Qing destroyed the rebels completely, the bereaved of Jahriyya were exiled from the Salar area to other places with "men to the south, women to the west."

Ma Mingxin had two wives. When Ma Mingxin was caught, his Salar wife committed suicide, and his other wife, Mrs. Zhang, was exiled to Ili in today's Xinjiang with their daughters. It is not hard to imagine how tragic the fate of the women who were exiled to Xinjiang by the government army was, but today's Jahriyya people have come not to mention their pain. The two daughters (in 1 opinion, three) of Ma Mingxin couldn't put up with the insult on the long journey on the Silk Road, and killed themselves. One young female follower of Mrs. Zhang threw her body in a lake on the way as well.

Mrs. Zhang herself endured it, and reached Ili at last. There were many Jahriyya followers who had hoped to follow her, and they too came to live in Ili. However, Mrs. Zhang killed more than ten members of a government official family who made her cook pork on New Year's Eve. She then went to the public office to surrender herself. Even an official is said to have admired her as she confessed that she killed them for the revenge.

At the time of her execution, she cried to one Islamic religious leader who was watching her at her execution: "What are you waiting for?"

While in tears, the religious leader painted her blood on his face, and performed the last ceremony for her, shedding tears, which must be done at the funeral for a Muslim, that is, the ceremony of regret, and he offered a final prayer for her.
