Moroccan Jews (Arabic: اليهود المغاربة‎, romanized: al-Yahūd al-Maghāriba Hebrew: יהודים מרוקאים‎ Yehudim Maroka'im) are Jews who live or have lived in Morocco. A significant Jewish population migrated from Spain and Portugal (Sephardic Jews), after the Spanish Inquisition, to the area and settled among Arab-Berbers. They were later met by a second wave of migration from the Iberian peninsula in the period immediately preceding and following the 1492 Alhambra Decree, when Jews were expelled from Spain, and soon after, from Portugal. This second immigration wave changed Moroccan Jewry, who largely embraced the Andalusian Sephardic liturgy, to switch to a mostly Sephardic identity.
