摘要
广州怀圣塔建造年代,在学术界历来有不同的意见,从初唐到南宋不一而足,但每种说法都缺乏决定性的证据,最后的结论还有待于新的文献及考古学证据的发现。近年来在这一课题上的最重要进展,当属郭祥正的两首咏光塔诗的发现,它锁定了怀圣塔的建造是在北宋元祐三年之前,在国际上影响深远的南宋蒲氏建塔说至此可以寝息。在唐宋时期的历史环境下,建造怀圣塔这样一座巨大体量的标志性的异域异族异教建筑是当时广州的重大事件,它必然要求在政治、经济、建筑技术等方面均具备必要的基本条件,而且华蕃双方应存在高度的互利和互信基础。从这样综合的整体考察,怀圣塔的建造年代应在唐开元至北宋熙宁之间,其中晚唐和南汉国时期又当别论。但以唐开元至太和盛唐、中唐时期与北宋相比较,在北宋熙宁年建造的可能性最大,而且主持建造者是当时广州的都蕃长辛押阤罗。而怀圣寺的雏形当建于唐贞观年间,匾额上的"贞观元年鼎建"应是明成化年后重建时追加的,对比早期阿拉伯清真寺的历史,可知这时间过于超前。
On the construction time of Mi＇ dhanah （ Huai - Sheng pagota） of Canton （Guangzhou） Huai - Sheng Mosque has been studied for almost one century by Chinese and foreign scholars. But the conclusions are quite different from Tang, northern Song to Southern Song dynasties. In this paper, we use the comparative architecture method to investigate the development of Canton wall, by which to discovery the level of architecture technique in Tang and Song dynasties, and the possibility of construct such huge Mi＇ dhanah, as well as when its style appears in Arab＇ s countries. On the other hand, we study and compare the maritime trade and related policies, as well as the situation of the Muslim＇ s community in Canton during Tang and Song dynasties. We conclude that the Mi＇ dhanah of Canton Huai - Sheng Mosque was constructed during the second to fifth years of Xi - Ning period of Northern Song （1069--1072） by the Xinyatuoluo, who came from Mezoen （Sohar） and was the head （Fanzhang） of Arab＇s merchants in Canton.
