'Qualify' in grammar means, describe or say something special about a word. A word describing or saying something special about another word, qualifies it. Tendulkar is a great cricketer. Here, the word 'great' says something about or describes the word 'cricketer'. So the word 'great' qualifies the word 'cricketer', usually adjectives qualify nouns.
