wow!! Now this is what I was looking for here. I remember how I used to post in the Urdu game thread here with sis Aisha just to know more about those words that have the same meaning in Arabic and Urdu. This is a good thread keep posting more words please.
I read somewhere here in the Urdu section that around 40% of urdu language is coming from Arabic, not sure if that is true or not.
P.S jazakiAllah khair for the person who told me about this thread
We also have, derived from Arabic لِ +هذا = لِهَذا meaning "therefore" (don't know if this word exists in Arabic)
بغير = without
Please correct me if any of the Arabic meanings are wrong.

You will find alot of Arabic words in Urdu, some time with same meanings and some times different. It is because Urdu doesn't just composed of arabic words, Urdu has Hindi, Turkhish, Farsi words too. Now through the years alot of words have been changed by meanings or by alternative words from different language of good sound use.
Some of the words sounds same but written differently and meaning sometime are same sometimes not
if you put shaddah on that so that it doesn't sound like faalah but fallah.. it turns from success to a 'rustic person' in Arabic.. that is what we call someone who works in the fields (singular masculine)
Text without context is pretext If your opponent is of choleric temperament, seek to irritate him
I think translating arabic to another language to it's nearest meaning would be urdu..I personally love both languages in their own form..more than my mother tongue.
زكّام = a cold (Urdu pron without shaddah)
بلغم = phlegm
نزلة = catarrh (written in Urdu as نزلہ
هضم = digestion (written in Urdu as ہضم
سرطان = cancer
فالج = paralysis
ورم = swelling
And other words:
rutbah = status, rank
muddat = period of time, duration, term
lobiyaa' = a type of bean (Urdu without the end hamza)
tamannaa = hope, desire, wish
iraadah = will, intention
iraadatan = intentionally, deliberately (not sure if this word exists in Arabic)
wazn = weight
imlaa' = dictation (Urdu without the end hamza)
naa'ib = deputy, vice-
wafd = delegation
nateejah = result
mushaqqat = hardship, difficulty
Also we have the following word غلط فهمي which is derived from two Arabic words, and means "misunderstanding" in Urdu. Does this word exist in Arabic? And what about لِهَذا mentioned in my post above? Does that exist in Arabic?
Please correct me if I've made any mistakes. Jazaakumullah khayr.

It is amazing when you look into it just how many are common to both languages.

edit: John T Platts authoritative dictionary on Hindi does say it means the astrological sign of Cancer, and says it also means "a cancer," and also says it means "cankers."

Help me to escape from this existence
I yearn for an answer... can you help me?
I'm drowning in a sea of abused visions and shattered dreams
In somnolent illusion... I'm paralyzed
