The word kaffir is used in South Africa to refer to a black person. Now widely considered an offensive ethnic slur, it was formerlya neutral term for South African blacks.

 

 

Kafir (Arabic: كافر‎ kāfir, plural كفّار kuffār; feminine DIN) is an Arabic term used in an Islamic doctrinal sense, usually translated as "unbeliever," "disbeliever," or "infidel." The term refers to a person who rejects or disbelieves in the god of Islam or who hides, denies, or pays no attention to the Islamic version of truth. The practise of declaring another Muslim as a kafir is takfir.[1]

 

The Qur'an uses the word kafir to signify various negative qualities of a person, all of which assist in the precise defining ofkufr. Kafir, kuf and words with the K-F-R root designate disbelievers and infidels, and an important Qur'anic concept for distinguishing believers and non-believers of Islam.[4] Kafir, and its plural kafirun, is directly used 134 times in Qur'an, its verbal noun "kufr" is used 37 times, and the verbal cognates of kafir are used about 250 times.[5]

I remember them using it in Four Lions. Haven't heard it used much otherwise.

Every verse that someone fairly unlearned in Islamic tradition will refer to with the word 'infidel' in it, actually says Kufr/Kafir

Any talk around Mosques / reading of the Qur'an / speeches by 'Scholars'/Clerics/Imams will use the word fairly often
