Meaning & History
From Arabic سفر (safar) meaning "journey, travel, voyage" or "campaign". It can also be derived from صفر (ṣafar) referring to the second month of the Islamic calendar, derived from the word صفر (ṣafr) meaning "empty, void" (so named because pagan Arabs looted houses empty during this month).
