Faisla

फ़ैसला

also written: faisala, faislah
Meaning

Decision, judgement, the act of settling a matter or resolving on a course.

Literally: From the root f-s-l: to separate, decide between.

How Iqbal uses it

The decisive act of judgement marks the self that wills rather than drifts; for Iqbal, who exalts the directed will, the power to resolve and decide is the mark of a man in command of his fate.
