Etymology

إِحْضار is the verbal noun of the Form IV verb أَحْضَرَ, meaning to bring or to make present. It is built on the triliteral root ح-ض-ر, which carries the idea of presence and attendance. Form IV adds a causative sense, so the root notion of being present becomes causing to be present, that is, to bring or fetch. The same root gives حُضور (presence) and حاضِر (present).
