The '''Jewish exodus from Arab lands''' refers to the 20th century expulsion or mass departure of Jew from [[Arab]] and Islamic countries. 

Most [[Mizrahi Jews]] migrated to Israel, however significant numbers also migrated to France and the United States. Migration began in the period 1900-1947, partially due to the influence of [[Zionism]]. However, after the announcement of the UN Partition Plan in 1947 there was a significant increase, and the exodus accelerated further after the [[1948 Arab-Israeli War]] and the the departure of the French from [[the Maghreb]]. According to official Arab statistics 856900,000 Jews left their homes in Arab countries from 1948 until the early 1970s, mostly in the period 1948-1958<ref>Mlka Hillel Shulewitz, The Forgotten Millions: The Modern Jewish Exodus from Arab Lands, Continuum 2001 page 139</ref>. Most left voluntarily, however many were expelled or left due to political insecurity. Most were forced to abandon their property. Some 600,000 resettled in Israel. Their descendants, and those of Iranian and Turkish Jews, now number 3.06 million of Israel's 5.4 to 5.8 million Jewish citizens. <ref name=aiwwj>Schwartz, Adi.
