22:29

ثُمَّ لْيَقْضُوا۟ تَفَثَهُمْ وَلْيُوفُوا۟ نُذُورَهُمْ وَلْيَطَّوَّفُوا۟ بِٱلْبَيْتِ ٱلْعَتِيقِ

22:33

لَكُمْ فِيهَا مَنَٰفِعُ إِلَىٰٓ أَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى ثُمَّ مَحِلُّهَآ إِلَى ٱلْبَيْتِ ٱلْعَتِيقِ

Why this meaning was chosen

Both family occurrences were reviewed on one bounded page; both are frozen targets, with no protected records or compacted candidates. Quran 22:29 and 22:33 repeat the identical fixed phrase ٱلْبَيْتِ ٱلْعَتِيقِ, first as the object of circumambulation and then as the destination of sacrificial animals. The conservative core 'ancient' does not add a chronology beyond the adjective. Both targets have identical definite masculine singular genitive agreement. No aligned reading payload, target-internal contrast, or unresolved issue is present.
