JABR (جبر).
Arabic name, apparently from the vocabulary word jabr
("constraint, force"), hence "constrainer" or "despot,
tyrant." English algebra comes from Arabic al
"the" and jabr (the constrainer). (People's Magazine, v.1,
1834) Related to Jabir
(q.v.)
... There was a king of Yemen
called Abu 'l-Jabr, of whom Ibn Duraid has spoken in the
following verse of his celebrated kasida which is entitled Maksura: And
sadness mingled with the soul of Abu Jabr, till death joined him
to the number of those whom it had already seized. (Ibn Khallikan's
Biographical Dictionary, v.4, 1871)
