巴刹（又译巴扎）来自波斯语بازار，是阿拉伯文化地区对集市或者市场大厅的称呼，尤其是指中东地区的集市街道，这些街道往往有顶棚遮掩，街道两旁有许多小的摊头和店铺。

中东巴刹的一个特点是许多贩卖类似商品的店铺集中在一起。巴刹的另一个特征是兼有批发商与零售商，有些商铺同时有批发商和零售商的作业。一般巴刹位于清真寺附近。

尽管巴刹这一单词源于波斯语，但是这一形式的商业模式已经被世界各地的本地人所广泛接受。 在马来西亚和新加坡，巴刹被分为干巴刹和湿巴刹。售卖鱼类水产以及菜场被称作湿巴刹，而售卖食品的地方称作干巴刹。而在香港某些市场或市集，例如甘肃街玉器市场和乐富市集，英文直译也是「巴刹」之意。

A bazaar is a permanently enclosed marketplace, or street where goods and services are exchanged or sold. The term originates from the Persian word bāzār, from Middle Persian wāzār, from Old Persian vāčar, from Proto-Indo-Iranian *wahā-čarana. Souq is another word used in the Middle East for an open-air marketplace or commercial quarter. The term bazaar is sometimes also used to refer to the "network of merchants, bankers, and craftsmen" who work in that area. Although the current meaning of the word is believed to have originated in native Zoroastrian Persia, its use has spread and now has been accepted into the vernacular in countries around the world. The rise of large bazaars and stock trading centers in the Muslim World allowed the creation of new capitals and eventually new empires. New and wealthy cities such as Isfahan, Golconda, Samarkand, Cairo, Baghdad, and Timbuktu were founded along trade routes and bazaars. Street markets is the European and North American equivalents.
