Arabic

Etymology

Probably from Old Persian 𐏃𐎡𐎯𐎢𐏁 (hinduš), from Sanskrit सिन्धु (síndhu, “river, the Indus”), from Proto-Indo-Iranian *sindʰuš (“river”).

This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium.
Particularly: “Are there such early attestations? We should rule out that it's simply from English "Hindus" and/or influenced by مَجُوس (majūs). The Arabs did have contact with Hinduism of course, but that doesn't mean they necessarily had this word.”
