5 Urdu couplets and shers with qadr
Qadr is an Arabic word, integral to Urdu, denoting value, worth, measure, power, or divine decree and predestination in Islamic theology. Unlike qadar, which signifies the actual destiny or that which has been destined, qadr refers to the divine power or measurement establishing it. Differs from taqdeer, a related term for predestination meaning events apportioned by pre-defined divine measures, as they stem from distinct grammatical forms of the root q-d-r.
