urdu / farasi help

[bekarar]

its a very nice experience to be a part of a very good site,
As you know that without the knowledge of urdu words shayri is incompleted hence I would suggest to start a new topic in which any body can ask meaning of difficult urdu or farasi words. or we can keep some words their itself for ready reference

[nirbhay]

Inayaat sumthing like that w8s this?

[bekarar]

inayat means meharbaani / daya

[nirbhay]

Azaala What does it mean?

Kinayaat is this word exits? If is it, then w8 does it mean?

Azaan W8 does this mean?

[Bharat]

Hello Nirbhay,
I am not an Urdu or Farsi expert but let me try.

Azaan means call for the prayer.
When azaan is heard that means it is time for Namaz or any kind of prayer.
I hope it helps.

[bekarar]

Azaala What does it mean?

Kinayaat is this word exits? If is it, then w8 does it mean?

Bharat is right & I think it must be "Kaynaat" wchich means poori duniya
