What is the difference between qada' and qadar?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. This questioner asks: What is the difference between qadar (divine decree) and qada'?
The Shaykh:
There is no difference between them; qada' is qadar, and qadar is qada'. Yes.
The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. And this questioner says:
The Shaykh:
Qada' is broader than qadar. Qada' involves judging between people and recompensing them, and qada' also involves adjudicating disputes according to the Shari'ah of Allah (Mighty and Majestic). So qada' is broader than qadar.
