History & Origin

Sabar is the Urdu and South Asian form of the Arabic sabr, 'patience; steadfast endurance.' It is a virtue held in high honour in Islamic teaching, and the word is used far more often as a moral quality than as a given name, which we note respectfully and honestly. Where it is used as a name it carries quiet strength. In the U.S. it is very rare (said 'SAH-bar').

It appears only very rarely in U.S. records. Very rare, quiet, and virtue-rooted.

Did you know? Sabar comes from sabr — patience — one of the core virtues in Islamic teaching, which we note respectfully. It is the Urdu form of a word carried with real seriousness (said 'SAH-bar').
