Kfar Malal (Hebrew: כפר מל"ל‎) is an agricultural moshav ("village") in the Sharon region in central Israel. Originally established as Ein Khai ("living fountain") in 1916, it was later named after Rabbi Moshe Leib Lilienblum (משה לייב לילינבלום), whose acronym in Hebrew is "MLL" (מל"ל). Rabbi Lilienblum (1843-1910) was an early leader in the Hovevei Zion movement[1].

The former general and Prime Minister of Israel, Ariel Sharon, was born in Kfar Malal. The moshav receives its municipal services from the Drom Hasharon Regional Council.
