Wang Jingzhai (traditional Chinese: 王靜齋; simplified Chinese: 王静斋; pinyin: Wáng Jìngzhāi; 1879 - 1949) was a well-known Muslim scholar during the Republic of China period.[1][2] He was the first or possibly second person to translate the entire Qur'an into Chinese, in either 1927[3] or 1932.[4] He began the translation due to a request from the son of female Chinese Muslim scholar Ding Yunhui.[5] Yunhui had written the Omudai, a partial translation of the Qur'an which omitted any references to Islamic sexual jurisprudence due to the prevailing sensitivities in women's mosques in China at the time.[5]
