Full Definition

إِسْتَقْرَرَX see 1, first signification, in three places; and see 4. [
2 استقرّ often signifies It was, or subsisted, or had being: and hence مُسْتَقِرٌّ is frequently used or understood as a copula, often with بِ prefixed to the predicate; as is also يَسْتَقِرُّ; so that رَيْدٌ مُسْتَقِرٌّ عِنْدَكَ or يَسْتَقِرُّ عندك may mean Zeyd is with thee; as well as Zeyd is residing, &c., with thee. See, on this point, I 'Ak, p. 58.)
3 Also, It obtained, or held.
