Dirrã, dirém, direme ou dirame (em árabe: درهم; romaniz.: Dirham) foi, e em alguns casos continua sendo, a moeda dos Estados berberes e árabes. Foi criada reutilizando dracmas sassânidas tardios, inicialmente empregando a iconografia persa, com uma inscrição religiosa cúfica. Sob o califa Abedal Maleque (r. 685–705), passaram por alterações drásticas com a reforma monetária implementada.
