Gabr (also gabrak, gawr, gaur, gyaur, gabre) is a
New Persian term originally used to denote a
Zoroastrian. Historically, gabr was a technical term synonymous with mōg, "
magus", denoting a follower of
Zoroastrianism, and it is with this meaning that the term is attested in very early New Persian texts such as the
Shahnameh. In time, gabr came to have a pejorative implication and was superseded in literature by the respectable Zardoshti, "Zoroastrian".
