Arabic word help

[DanyalSAC]

Asalaamu alaikum -

I was looking at an online site for thobes in Saudi Arabia and on the "Size Chart" it asked for "zarzoor" with the Arabic version being زرزور.

When I tried to translate the word it came out as starling or bunting, a songbird.

I asked my friend in KSA and he has no clue either.

Anyone know what زرزور means? Its obviously part of a body if its on the size chart!

Thanks!

JazakAllah Khairn

I looked up in Hans Wehr.

zarzoori means grey with white spots. In the bracket it says "Horse"

Perhaps it is Horse Size

Please understand I am not advertising for this company!!

But if you look at any of those designs there is a link under the Size pulldown that says "Click for size chart". You click that and the 1st line says "Zarzoor"

:salam2: Akhi,

Khalli walli is from "khallu" which basically means to leave or let go, Its there in Quran too

فَإِن تَابُواْ وَأَقَامُواْ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَءَاتَوُاْ ٱلزَّڪَوٰةَ فَخَلُّواْ سَبِيلَهُمۡ*!ۚ

But if they repent and perform As-Salât (Iqâmat-as-Salât), and give Zakât, then leave their way free.

Ok I'm taking my thread back.... lol

I found out the word "zarzoor" refers to the "breast" of the thobe, the part where the buttons go.

Yes , It's Zirr as what we said , Azareer is the plural
Zarzoor is in the classic Arabic , some ppl say " zarror "

but zarzoor in the formal Arabic means a kind of birds .
