Terminal command to kill Safari
I need the terminal command to quit Safari including its tabs. When I use killall "Safari", reopening the Safari retains all the previously opened tabs. This happens only when I close the browser using terminal command. How to fix this?

First of all these types of questions should be posted at SuperUser not StackOverflow.
The “Quit” operation in MacOS is not a signal; it is an Apple Event.
You can send "Quit" event with AppleScript like this:
osascript -e "tell application "Safari" to quit"
