Brit.

/ˈzɪndəˌkaɪt/

Forms: 1600s– Zindikite, 1700s Zindikit, 1700s–1800s Zendikite, 1900s Zendicite.

Origin: Formed within English, by derivation; apparently modelled on a French lexical item. Etymons: English Zindik , Zindiq n., -ite suffix¹.

Etymology: < Zindik, variant of Zindiq n. + -ite suffix¹, apparently after French Zindikite (1689 or earlier: see note). Compare slightly later Zendicism n.Compare French †Zindiki , in the same sense (1670 in a translation of the passage cited in quot. 1667 at Zindiq n.); this French passage is referenced in 1689 in an encyclopedia entry (under Zindikite ), which in turn appears to have influenced quot. 1694. Sometimes associated with Zend n. (compare quot. 1755 and the discussion at Zindiq n.).

Now rare and historical.

A member or adherent of an Islamic sect in Persia or the Ottoman Empire; (also occasionally) a member or adherent of a pre-Islamic Persian sect. Cf. Zindiq n.In 18th cent. use, apparently designating the same group referred to in the early quotations at Zindiq n., and explicitly interpreted as a heretical Islamic sect.
