Moroccan and Egyptian confection For 1997 album of the same name, see Majoun (album).

Majoun or majun (Arabic: معجون [mæʕˈʒuːn, -ˈɡuːn], "kneaded"/"paste") is a Moroccan and Egyptian confection, which can resemble a pastry ball, fudge, or jam. Ingredients can include honey, nuts, and dried fruits, and the treat is commonly made as a cannabis edible, sometimes in combination with other drugs. A 1957 report describes majun as containing "hemp, opium and seeds of datura".
