Zarar Surname Meaning
User-submitted Reference
The origin of this name is unknown but it is specalated to be a name derived from the Arabic word, darrar, which means 'kind' and 'dangerous' (definitions vary). According to some historians the name "Zarar" comes from the famous Muslim warrior Dhiraar bin Al-Azwar, who is called "Zarrar bin Al-Azwar" in South Asia due to phonological change over time and also because in Urdu the Arabic word of "Du-aad" is pronounced as "Zu-aad". Zarrar or Zarar is considered a very harsh name and is rarely used as a family surname, e.g. Lt Gen Zarrar Azim was a high ranking officer in the Pakistan Army. His children don't use Zarrar as their surname. Battle tanks and commando teams in Pakistan are also called "Zarar".
