What is the difference between "maqābira" and "qubūr"? They both mean graves. Thanks.

"qabr" -- the singular of "qubur" -- refers to a (single) grave, whereas "maqbar" or "maqbara" -- the singular of "maqabir" -- refers to a cemetery or graveyard, where there is presumably more than one grave to be found. Wallahu a'alam.
