sifar(m): zero, nothingness
Description of sifar: The Urdu word "sifar" means zero or nothing, representing the numerical concept and absence of quantity. It derives from Arabic origins and carries mathematical significance in South Asian languages.

Differs from mere numerical designation, the term appears in poetry symbolizing loss, insignificance, or spiritual emptiness. In Urdu verse, poets employ sifar metaphorically to express human insignificance
