清真寺是穆斯林进行礼拜活动的重要场所,阿拉伯国家的清真寺为典型的穹顶式建筑,随着伊斯兰教传入中国,清真寺建筑在发展中逐步吸收了汉族建筑的特点,表现为两种建筑艺术的融合,从而创造了特有的建筑型制,这种伊斯兰教建筑的中国化在明清西安清真寺中表现的十分明显。这些遍布中国的清真寺,丰富了世界建筑文化的内容,它们是历代各族人民智慧的结晶,是中外人民长期友好交往的见证,理应值得我们认真研究和悉心保护。 The mosque is an important place for Muslims to conduct worship activities. The mosques in Arab countries are typical dome-shaped buildings. With the introduction of Islam into China, mosque buildings gradually absorbed the characteristics of Han architecture in their development and manifested themselves in the fusion of the two architectural arts , Thus creating a unique architectural system. The localization of this Islamic architecture is evident in the Ming and Qing dynasties mosques. These mosques throughout China have enriched the content of the world’s architectural culture. They are the crystallization of the wisdom of people of all nationalities in all ages and witness the long-term friendly exchanges between the Chinese and foreign people. They deserve our careful study and careful protection.
