'''Mohajira'''<ref group="note">(/mʊˈhɑːdʒɪɹə, -hæ-/ ''muu-HA(H)-jirr-ə'' or /məˈhɑːdʒɪɹə, -hæ-/ ''mə-HA(H)-jirr-ə'', named by Jacques Dudon from Arabic مهاجرة ''Muhājirah'')</ref> is a [[Meantone_family#Mohajira|meantone]] temperament that splits 3/2 into two 11/9 generators and the 6/5 into two 11/10's, thus equating 11/10 with 12/11 and 11/9 with 27/22. As a result, eight 11/9s reach 5/4, and five reach 11/8. It tempers the biyatisma ([[121/120]]) and the [[rastma]] (along with meantone's [[syntonic comma]]). It can be thought of as meantone with quarter tones as it merely splits the generator 3/2 into two equally spaced neutral thirds. Among the most common is the seven note MOS mohajira[7] which consists of the steps LsLsLss, as well as the modMOS "Rast" which merely flats the fourth by one quarter tone.

Among the most common is the 7-note mos Mohajira[7] which consists of the steps LsLsLss, as well as the [[modmos]] "Rast" which merely flats the fourth by one quartertone.


The simplest form of this temperament, in 2.3.5.11, is sometimes called '''mohaha'''. To extend mohaha into full 11-limit mohajira, 7 is found at 11 neutral thirds down, tempering out the [[valinorsma]] such that 14/11 is equated with 32/25. Mohaha is tuned best sharp of 31edo's neutral third. An alternate extension, ''migration,'' is optimized for flatter tunings and finds 7 at 20 generators up, the same mapping as in [[septimal meantone]] which tempers out [[225/224]].

As mohajira is a neutral third system, 13 also has a reasonable mapping at -1 generator, equating 11/9 and 16/13. Subsequently, 17 is mapped to -10 generators (the diatonic semitone) and 19 to -6 generators (the minor third).

There are seven modes of mohajira's 7-note mos (named [[mosh]] due to being "mohajira-ish") which are structured in an analogous way to the seven modes of the major scale. They can be thought of as quarter tone altered modes in a 24edo setting, but also as microtonal altered scales in any equal temperament. While the Mohajira[7] mos by itself is quite beautiful, the modMOS Rast tends to be more expressive as it contains a few major and minor thirds allowing for more contrast.
