Where it comes from

The four possible definitions given were all recorded by Al-Tabari, but most have no supported etymology. In the "lion" sense, the word is claimed to be a borrowing from an Ethiopian language, though it is possible that it is of South Arabian origin and that the extreme southern end of Arabia was conflated with Abyssinia; compare Hobyót ḳaṣ̂áwrət, the plural of ḳáyṣ̂ər (“leopard”).
