A general term for Muslims who live in the Malabar region of South India (now Kerala state), known in Malayalam as Māppilla. They are said to be the mixed race descendants of Arab merchants who arrived in the 9th century. The people who lived along the coast were merchants, while the Moplahs inland were overwhelmingly small-scale farmers. The Moplah farmers in particular were among the poorest class under the harsh landlord system in the Malabar region, and throughout the 19th century they resisted the Madras state government and waged an anti-landlord struggle.

南インドのマラバル地方(現,ケーララ州内)に集中して居住するムスリムの総称で,マラヤーラム語ではマーッピッラMāppilla。9世紀ころ移ってきたアラブ商人の混血の子孫ともいわれる。海岸線に居住する人々は商人,内陸部のモープラーは圧倒的に零細な耕作農民であった。特にモープラー農民はマラバル地方での苛酷な地主制の下で最貧困層に組み入れられており,19世紀を通じて,当時のマドラス州政府への抵抗や反地主闘争を展開した。
