The Spanish, Portuguese and Catalan words {{Lang|es|muladí}}, {{Lang|pt|muladi}} or {{Lang|ca|muladita}} are derived from the Arabic {{Transliteration|ar|muwallad}}. The basic meaning of {{Transliteration|ar|muwallad}} is 'a person of mixed ancestry', especially a descendant of one Arab and one non-Arab parent,<ref>Dozy, the history of Islamic Spain, Arabic translation, vol 1, p: 156.</ref> who grew up under the influence of an Arabic society and were educated within the [[Muslim culture|Islamic culture]]. {{Lang|es|Muladi}} is the Spanish form of the term {{Transliteration|ar|muwalladun}}, referring to Arabic-speaking Muslims of Hispanic origin who showed the same behaviour patterns as rebels of Arab and Berber origin who had rebelled against Arab rule, such as during the Great [[Berber Revolt]] of 739/740–743 AD.<ref name="Bernards and Nawas 2005">{{cite book| author1=Monique Bernards| author2=John Abdallah Nawas| title=Patronate And Patronage in Early And Classical Islam |url= https://books.google.com/books?id=RqdcXWARYCQC&pg=PA219 |year=2005 |publisher=BRILL |isbn=978-90-04-14480-4| pages=219–}}</ref>
{{Transliteration|ar|Muwallad}} is derived from {{Transliteration|ar|walad}} ({{lang|ar|ولد}}), which means 'descendant, offspring, scion, son'. {{Transliteration|ar|Muwallad}} referred to the offspring of Muslim men and foreign, non-Muslim women. The term {{Transliteration|ar|muwalladin}} is sometimes used in Arabic to this day to describe the children of Muslim fathers and foreign mothers.<ref>[[Kees Versteegh]], et al.

According to Dozy, {{Transliteration|ar|Muwallad}} means "anyone who, without being of Muslim origin, is born among the Muslims and has been raised as an Arab".<ref>cited by Monique Bernards and John Nawas. ''Patronate and patronage in early and classical Islam.'' BRILL, 2005. Page 220.</ref> The word, according to him, does not necessarily imply Arab ancestry, either paternal or maternal.
According to the dictionary of the [[Real Academia Española]], {{Lang|es|muladí}} means "Christian who, during the domination of the Arabs in Spain, converted to Islam and lived among the Muslims",<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://buscon.rae.es/draeI/SrvltConsulta?TIPO_BUS=3&LEMA=muladi|title=Diccionario de la lengua española &#124; Edición del Tricentenario}}</ref> while Bernards and Nawas say the plural form of the word seems to be restricted to al-Andalus, almost exclusively to the areas of [[Mérida, Spain|Mérida]], [[Granada]], [[Seville]] and [[Jaén, Spain|Jaén]].<ref>Bernards and Nawas 2005, p. 220</ref> {{Lang|es|Muladí}} has been offered as one of the possible etymological origins of the still-current Spanish and Portuguese term ''[[Mulatto|mulato]]'', denoting a person of African (black) and European (white) ancestry;{{cn|date=September 2017}} however, the dictionary of the Real Academia Española and several authorities trace {{Lang|es|mulato}} (and from it, English ''mulatto'') to Spanish {{Lang|es|mulo}} '[[mule]]', from Latin {{Lang|la|mūlus}}.<ref>{{Cite American Heritage Dictionary|mulatto }} Retrieved 26 Sept 2017</ref><ref>{{Cite Merriam-Webster |mulatto | accessdate=2017-09-26}}</ref>
==History==
{{Unbalanced|date=June 2023}}{{One source|date=June 2023}}
In [[Islamic history]] {{Transliteration|ar|muwalladun}} designates in a broader sense non-Arab Muslims or the descendants of [[religious conversion|converts]]. In the [[Al-Andalus|Muslim-ruled parts]] of the Iberian Peninsula, parts of the indigenous until-then Christian population (basically a mixture of the [[pre-Roman peoples of the Iberian Peninsula]], [[Ancient Rome|ancient Romans]], [[Visigoths]] and [[Suebi]]) converted to [[Islam]] in the 8th and 9th centuries. In the 10th century a massive conversion of Christians took place, so that ''muladies'' comprised the majority of the population of [[Al-Andalus]] by the century's end. However, the majority of Muwallads had converted to Islam early, but retained many pre-Islamic customs and characteristics.
[[Conversion to Islam]] was encouraged by the [[Umayyad]] caliphs and [[Emirate of Córdoba|Emirs of Córdoba]] but it was not directly forced. Many Christians converted to Islam to avoid the [[Jizya|jizya tax]] which they were subjected to as [[dhimmi]]s.<ref name="Mozarab">Thomas F. Glick, ''Islamic and Christian Spain in the early Middle Ages'', BRILL, 2005, {{ISBN|978-90-04-14771-3}},[https://books.google.com/books?id=cWqmebvcjj0C&pg=PA187&dq=Al+Andalus+Christians+converted+dhimmi&ei=HOEgSrWfGIjAlQTZhOnaCA,M1 Google Print, p. 187].</ref> Conversion to Islam also opened up new horizons to the native Christians, alleviated their social position, ensured better living conditions, and broadened their scope for more technically skilled and advanced work.<ref>[[Kenneth Baxter Wolf]] (1988), "[http://libro.uca.edu/martyrs/cm2.htm Christians in Muslim Córdoba]", in [http://libro.uca.edu/martyrs/martyrs.htm ''Christian Martyrs in Muslim Spain''], Cambridge University Press.</ref>
Some christians who converted to Islam became ''[[Mawali]]'', or clients attached to an Arab tribe, and as such, were thoroughly Islamized, adopting the Arabic dress code, customs, and language. <ref name= Imamuddin>S. M. Imamuddin, ''Some aspects of the socio-economic and cultural history of Muslim Spain 711–1492 A.D.'', pp. 26–29</ref>
The Muwallads were also called {{Transliteration|ar|Muslima}} ('Islamized'), and {{Transliteration|ar|elches}} ({{Transliteration|ar|ilj}}, plural: {{Transliteration|ar|ulus}}), in reference to the society from which they sprang. They later were denominated [[Aljamiado]]s because of their non Arabic-tongue, that is, the [[Mozarabic language]]s.
Through the cultural [[Arabization]] of ''muladies'' and their increasing inter-marriage with some [[Berber people|Berbers]] and Arabs present in Iberia, the distinctions between the different [[Muslim]] groups became increasingly blurred in the 11th and 12th centuries. The populations mixed with such rapidity that it was soon impossible to distinguish ethnically the elements of foreign origin from the natives. Thus they merged into a more homogeneous group of Andalusi Arabs, generally also called [[Moors]].<ref name= Imamuddin/>
[[Image:Poema de Yusuf.jpg|thumb|Poems in [[Aljamiado]].]]
The Muwallads primarily spoke [[Andalusian Arabic]], along with a wide variety of [[Iberian Romance languages]]. [[Andalusian Arabic]] was a mixture of Iberian languages and [[Classical Arabic]], though derived especially from [[Latin]]. This local dialect of Arabic was also spoken by the Berbers and Arabs from the 9th century onwards.
In the process of acculturation, Muwallads may well have adopted an [[Agnatic seniority|agnatic]] [[Kinship|model of descent]], but without abandoning the [[Bilateral descent|bilaterality]] of late [[Roman naming conventions|Roman kinship]]. According to [[Abu Jafar ibn Harun of Trujillo]] a vast but silent majority of Muladi Muslims thrived, especially in the [[Extremadura]] region of [[Spain]].<ref name= Imamuddin/>
Among the Muwalladun were the free-born, the enfranchised, and [[Slavery in medieval Europe|the enslaved]]. A significant part of the Muwalladun was formed by freed slaves. These were the ''[[Saqaliba]]'', or ''Slavs'' who became an important social group in Al-Andalus during the 10th and 11th centuries. Upon adopting the ethnic name of their patrons, the emancipated slaves gradually forgot their own ethnic origin.<ref name= Imamuddin/> The Muslim slaves were the [[Saqaliba]], led by [[Ali ibn Yusuf]], who profited from the progressive crumbling of the [[Umayyad]] Caliphate's superstructure to gain control over the province of [[Denia]]. The Saqaliba managed to free themselves and gain dominion over the [[taifa]], which extended its reach as far as the [[Balearic Islands]], and their capital, Madina Mayurqa (now [[Palma de Majorca]]).
The intermarriage of foreign Muslims with native Christians made many Muwallads heedless of their Iberian origin. As a result, their descendants and many descendants of Christian converts forgot the descent of their ancestors and assumed forged Arab [[Genealogy|genealogies]].<ref name= Imamuddin/> However, there were a few who were proud of their Roman and Visigothic origins. These included the Banu Angelino and Banu Sabarico of [[Seville]], [[Banu Qasi]] of [[Aragon]], Banu l' Longo and Banu Qabturno. Several Muwallad nobles also used the name {{Transliteration|ar|Al-Quti}}, ('the [[Goths|Goth]]'),<ref name="Ferreiro1998">{{cite book|author=Alberto Ferreiro|title=The Visigoths: Studies in Culture and Society|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=B39pAAAAMAAJ&q=%27%27Al-Quti%27%27+%22goth%22+%22nisba%22|year=1998|publisher=Brill|isbn=978-90-04-11206-3|page=304}}</ref> and some may have been actual descendants from the family of the [[Visigothic Kingdom|Visigothic King of Hispania]], [[Wittiza]].<ref name= Imamuddin/>
The conversion of the native Christians to Islam did not mean the total erasure of previous beliefs and social practises. There is some evidence of a limited cultural borrowing from the Christians by the Muwalladun and other Muslims in Al-Andalus. For instance, the Muslims' adoption of the Christian [[solar calendar]] and holidays was an exclusively Andalusí phenomenon. In Al-Andalus, the Islamic [[lunar calendar]] was supplemented by the local solar calendar, which was more useful for agricultural and navigational purposes. Like the local [[Mozarab]]s (Iberian Christians under Muslim rule in the Al-Andalus who remained unconverted to Islam), the Muslims of Al-Andalus were notoriously heavy drinkers. The Muslims also celebrated traditional Christian holidays, sometimes with the sponsorship of their leaders, despite the fact that such fraternisation was generally opposed by the [[Ulema]]. The Muslims also hedged their religious devotions through the use of [[Roman Catholic Church|Roman Catholic]] [[Sacraments of the Catholic Church|sacraments]].<ref name=Catlos>Brian A. Catlos, ''The victors and the vanquished'', Cambridge University Press, 2004, {{ISBN|978-0-521-82234-3}},[https://books.google.com/books?id=3IdlPgY2wn0C&pg=PA33&dq=exclusively+Andalusi+phenomenon&ei=dekgSvD9Go2GkQThmY2iAQ#PPA33,M1 Google Print, p. 33].</ref>

Many Muwallads held key posts in the departments of civil administration, justice, and the armed forces. [[Amrus ibn Yusuf]], a Muwallad who was originally from [[Huesca]], was appointed governor of [[Toledo, Spain|Toledo]] by [[Hakam&nbsp;I]] in 797. Towards the end of the 11th century, the Muwalladun held distinctive posts in the judicial departments. The [[Caliph of Córdoba]], [[Abd ar-Rahman&nbsp;III]], once bestowed the post of chief [[qadi]] of Córdoba on a Christian convert, whose parents were still Christian, and the [[Faqih|Fuqaha]] found much difficulty in dissuading him. The secretary of the Córdoban emir, [[Abd Allah]], was a Muwallad. The commander of the Córdoban force in the [[battle of Simancas|battle of Alhandega]] against the [[Zamora (province)|Zamorans]] in 938 was a [[saqaliba|neo-Muslim Slavic]] general named [[Najdah]]. The 10th century Muwallad historian [[Ibn al-Qūṭiyya]] was descended directly on the maternal side from the Visigothic King [[Wittiza]].<ref name= Imamuddin/> In about 889 a ship carrying twenty [[Berber people|Berber]] Muwallad adventurers from [[Pechina]] near [[Almería]] established a fortress in [[Fraxinet]], on the Gulf of [[Saint-Tropez]] in Provence. They spoke both [[Latin]] and [[Arabic]].<ref>[http://www.qantara-med.org/qantara4/public/show_document.php?do_id=1380&lang=en Description of annular gourd at Qantara website] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111008170454/http://www.qantara-med.org/qantara4/public/show_document.php?do_id=1380&lang=en |date=2011-10-08 }}</ref>
Several Muwalladun became rich and powerful magnates by means of trade, agriculture, and political activity. The Muwallads of the town the Christians called ''Elvira'' (nowadays Granada), after the former Iberian name ''Ilbira'', had become so powerful during the reign of [[Abdullah ibn Muhammad al-Umawi]] that they rose under a chieftain called Nabil and successfully drove the [[Moors]] out of the city. The [[Banu Qasi]] dynasty which ruled the upper [[Ebro valley]] in the 9th and 10th centuries, became strong enough to break free from the control of the [[Umayyad dynasty]] of Córdoba and turn from a semi-autonomous governorship to an independent [[taifa]].<ref name= Imamuddin/>
The Muwalladun were the mainstay of the economic framework of the country. Together with the Mozarabs they constituted the productive classes which were craftsmen and small tradesmen in the towns, and farmers and labourers in the rural countryside. However, they were inferior to the Arabs and Berbers in social status. Prominent positions in government and society were usually not available to individuals of Muladi descent. In spite of the Islamic doctrine of equality and brotherhood of Muslims, the Muwalladun were often looked down upon with the utmost contempt by the Arab and Berber aristocrats and were usually pejoratively referred to as "the sons of slaves".<ref name="Imamuddin"/>
The Muwallads, in turn, in spite of their profession of faith, despised the Arabs whom they viewed as colonialists and foreign intruders. This mutual feeling of hatred and suspicion provoked frequent revolts and led the Muwallads to support the [[Abbasid]] political agents, the preachers of ''[[Shu'ubiyya]]'' (a non-Arab movement), and subversive activities against the Umayyad rule in Iberia.<ref name= Imamuddin/> The Shu'ubiyyah of Al-Andalus were active like the Arabs in promoting Arab-Islamic culture and language and claimed their integration with the Arab ethnic groups. The Shu'ubiyyah movement demanded equality of power, wealth and status for non-Arab Berbers and the Muwalladun from the Arabs. Some judges of Huesca upheld the cause of the Muwalladun in the beginning of the 10th century, and a literary [[epistle]] of the middle of the 11th century repeated arguments of Eastern Shu'ubite writers.<ref>Enderwitz, S. "Shu'ubiyya". ''Encyclopedia of Islam''. Vol. IX (1997), pp. 513.</ref>
In Al-Andalus, the large numbers of Christians adopting Islam prompted concern among the authorities about the weakening of the tax base and further inflamed resentment towards the Muwallads.<ref name="Ammari"/>
The Muwallads were in almost constant revolt against the Arab and Berber immigrants who had carved out large estates for themselves, farmed by Christian serfs or slaves.<ref name="Ammari">Bat Yeʼor, Miriam Kochan, [[David Littman (historian)|David Littman]], ''Islam and Dhimmitude'', Fairleigh Dickinson Univ Press, 2002, {{ISBN|978-0-8386-3943-6}},[https://books.google.com/books?id=PK-TPKvmG7UC&pg=PA62&dq=Muwallads+constant+revolt&ei=WOIgSpC5KovOkwSbrLTUCA#PPA62,M1 Google Print, p. 62].</ref>{{bsn|date=December 2022}} The most famous of these revolts were led by a Muwallad rebel named [[Umar ibn Hafsun]] in the region of [[Málaga]] and [[Ronda]]. Ibn Hafsun ruled over several mountain valleys for nearly forty years, having the castle [[Bobastro]] as his residence. He rallied disaffected muwallads and mozárabs to his cause. Ibn Hafsun eventually renounced Islam with his sons and became a Christian, taking the name Samuel and proclaimed himself not only the leader of the Christian nationalist movement, but also the champion at the same time of a regular crusade against Islam. However, his conversion soon cost him the support of most of his Muwallad supporters who had no intention of ever becoming Christians, and led to the gradual erosion of his power.<ref>{{in lang|es}} [http://www.andalucia.cc/adn/0198per.htm El caudillo muladí Umar bin Hafsún, pesadilla de los emires de Córdoba]</ref>
There were also other Muwallad revolts throughout Al-Andalus. In the Elvira region, for instance, discord sprang up between the Muwallads and Moors, the latter being led by Sawar ibn Hamdub, and the poet, [[Sa'ad ibn Judi]], both of whom fluctuated between insurrection against Abd'Allah and submission to him. In [[Seville]], the second largest city after [[Kingdom of Córdoba|Córdoba]], there was a vicious [[feud]] between the two Arab aristocratic families, Banu Hajjaj and Banu Khaldun, and two Muwallad noble families, Banu Angelino and Banu Sabarico, which finally left Ibrahim ibn Hajjaj as the ruler of an independent city-state.<ref name= Imamuddin/>
In 805, the Muwallads of Córdoba, incited by certain theologians, revolted against the Umayyads under Hakim I, but the uprising was suppressed. In 814, there was a second revolt of Muwallads in Corboba, and this time the revolt was put down with the utmost severity, and resulted in the expulsion of 9,500 Muwallads from Córdoba, with over 1,500 going to [[Alexandria]] and 8,000 to [[Fes|Fez]]. In 858, there was a Muwallad revolt in [[Mérida, Spain|Mérida]], led by Ibn Marwan. The Muwallads complained of the taxation of their lands as if they were still Christian. The revolt's outcome was the defeat of Ibn Marwan. Mérida was subdued, but the centre of revolt soon moved to [[Badajoz]].<ref name= Imamuddin/>
The Muwallads were sometimes assisted by the local Mozarab population, and occasionally by the Christian powers in their revolts. For instance, when the Muwalladun of Toledo revolted, aided by the large Mozarabic population of the city, [[Ordoño&nbsp;I of Asturias]], promptly responded to their appeal for help, but the Emir's forces were routed by the [[Toledo, Spain|Toledans]] and [[Kingdom of Asturias|Asturians]] on the [[Guadacelete]] in 854.<ref name= Imamuddin/>
Many minor rebels from among the Muladi leadership took possession of various sites, their descendants eventually becoming semi-independent Emirs. These included:
* Ubayd Allah ibn Umayya ibn Shaliya in Shumantan (present-day [[Somontin]] in the region of [[Jaén, Spain|Jaén]]),
* Saʿid ibn Mastanna in Baghu ([[Priego]]),
* Khayr ibn Shakir in Shudhar ([[Jodar]]),
* Saʿid ibn Hudhayl in al-Muntliyun ([[Monleon]] near Jaén),
* Daysam ibn Ishaq in [[Murcia]] and Lurqa ([[Taifa of Lorca|Lorca]]),
* ʿAbd al-Malik ibn ʿAbd-al Jamal in [[Beja (Portugal)|Beja]] and Mirtula ([[Mértola]]) in Portugal,
* Bakr ibn Yahya in Shantamariyyat [[Al'Garb Al'Andalus|al-Gharb]] (the present-day city of [[Faro, Portugal|Faro]] in [[Algarve]], Southern Portugal).<ref name= Imamuddin/>
* Muhammad ibn ʿUmar ibn Khattab ibn Angelino, of [[Seville]] rebelled against [[Abd ar-Rahman&nbsp;III]]
On the western frontier of Al-Andalus, the Muwalladun and Berber families divided control of the region containing Mérida, Badajoz, and their environs.<ref name= Imamuddin/>
