Etymology
The word derives from the triliteral Semitic root ق-د-ر (q-d-r), which carries the sense of measuring, being able, and decreeing. It is the verbal noun of the form II verb قَدَّرَ, meaning to estimate, value, or hold in esteem. The same root produces words for power, ability, fate, and quantity.
