Here is how to check if the string "abcde" is 4 characters or more:
{{Str ≥ len| أبجدهوز| 4
| يساوي أو أكثر من.
| أقل.
}}
ينتج
يساوي أو أكثر من.

Templates have a problem to handle parameter data that contains equal signs "=". But that is easily solved by using numbered parameters. Here we check if the string "أب=جدهوز" is 100 characters or more:
{{Str ≥ len
| 1 = أب=جدهوز
| 2 = 100
| 3 = يساوي "=" أو أكبر من.
| 4 = أقل، ليس "=".
}}
ينتج
أقل، ليس "=".
It probably is a good habit to always use the numbered parameters, since you might not know beforehand exactly how the data will look that your template will feed to this meta-template.

{{Str ≥ len
| 1 = A string
| 2 = A length
| 3 = Data to return/render when "longer than or equally long".
| 4 = Data to return/render when "shorter than".
}}
Empty or undefined strings are considered to be of 0 length.
Length values below 0 are considered to be 0.
Technical details
The potential alternative templates names {{str >= len}} or (for the opposite) {{str < len}} do not work in MediaWiki.
Even though this is a string handling template it uses very efficient code. (While some of the other string handling templates are probably so heavy on the servers that we perhaps should not use them.)
Templates have problems to handle parameter data that contains pipes "|", unless the pipe is inside another template {{اسم|param1}} or inside a piped link [[مساعدة:قالب|help]]. Thus templates can not handle wikitables as input unless you escape them by using the {{!}} template. This makes it hard to use wikitables as parameters to templates. Instead the usual solution is to use "HTML wikimarkup" for the table code, which is more robust.
